A: No

Q: Does this conference conflict with other conferences or activities for students?
A: This conference does not conflict with Freshman Academy. It does, however, conflict with the Late Summer Honors Conference. It also conflicts with the Marching Band Camp because rehearsals can last all day. Because the Marching Band sends out confirmations throughout June, you can register for the Foundations of Leadership Conference, and if you get a position in the marching band, contact us before August 1, 2008. You will receive a full refund if you contact us before that date.
