The money collected from the registration is used to pay for the hotel and convention facilities, associated services for equipment, maintenance, printing of registration packets and other related expenses. Administration expenses include rent for committee meetings and general expenses prior to the convention. Please understand that the fees from registration make this event possible. Registration funds collected are used only for planning and implementation of present and future Monterey Bay Conventions. It is the support of each member’s registration or donation that helps make our convention a success.
