Hi,
When I registered, I paid a deposit of $150. Now the website says the deposit should be $175. Did the conference price or the required deposit change? I ask because I want to pay my balance, but the option is to pay $200 and I think I might need to pay $225.
I can send it via paypal to amblesideonline@gmail.com but can you verify the amount?
Also -- I tried to pay via the conference website today and it said the transaction could not be completed due to a problem with the seller's website.

You registered with the Earlybird discount and saved $25. 
We are having trouble with the coding; you can send the balance directly to amblesideonline@gmail.com -- and $200 is correct for those who paid $150 before the Earlybird discount (I think that was March 10).

I had that problem with the website when I tried to pay for the conference in full all at once. Then I made the deposit payment and two minutes later paid the balance and it went through fine.

I paid the $750 for my husband and myself. Will it be possible to room share and still save?

I have a similar question. If my family of 4 came but only myself attended the conference we would still have to pay for lodging and I'm not sure what that would cost??? Also my husband would have the kids during the day and not sure if they would have access to facilities on site as well? I suppose the other option is for our entire family to stay offsite locally and I can pay for commuter cost/meals.
Can't wait for the schedule to come out as well.

Cost is pretty high for family members. You would have access to the facilities some. You would probably do better staying offsite, truly.

I think lodging costs for family members are listed on the registration form now, if anyone is curious.
