This Early-bird discounted rate will last up to Jan 31st 2008.
Background:
The Early-bird registration of $150 was set after ground work and estimates by a UNAA Board sub committee on the budget was convened. This rate is the lowest in two years and is intended to be a great incentive for members to register early. The board has also included estimates on the registration form for future registration deadlines.

Since this is the lowest rate since the past two conventions I encourage members to treat it as their holiday gift from UNAA and take advantage. This is the lowest it can be.
Pass this on and stay tuned for more rewarding updates.
