Events Calendar for 2008–2009
Workshop Registration Fees
PLT charges a $15 registration fee to attend workshops. Some of our workshops have community sponsors which reduces the cost of the workshop. Other workshops have a higher registration fee because lunch, beverages, or snacks are provided. For each workshop on the calendar, the registration fee or name of the community sponsors will be listed. For additional information contact PLT Central at (352) 846-2329.
Registration fees can be paid in the form of cash or check made out to 'University of Florida'.
