Registration Guide

Picture
​After clicking the REGISTER button, you will be taken to this page. Underneath the header graphic, a progress bar is displayed that will help you know where you are along the way.

On this page, you will select your Registration Type and enter your contact information.

Picture
​At the bottom of the page, there will be a section that reads Guest Information. If you are going to register more people than just yourself, you can add those people by selecting the Add a guest button.

Picture
​Clicking the Add a guest button opens this window. You can add the other person's registration type, contact information, etc., and then click ok. If you are registering more people, just keep clicking Add a guest until the people in your party are all added.

Picture
​After you add all of the people in your party and advance to the next page, there will be a list of all the sessions available. All of the sessions are listed in chronological order.

On the right side of the screen underneath the price of each session, you can select attendees. This will only show up if you have added more than just yourself in your party. If you are only registering yourself, you will just click one button to select that session.

Picture
​When you click on the Select attendees button, this screen will pop up. There will be a list of people in your party that you previously entered. You can click on the box next to the person's name that you'd like to sign up for that specific session and then click confirm.

Picture
​After you select all of the sessions you (and your party if registering others) would like to attend, this option may appear at the bottom of the screen before you advance. (If the screen won't advance, you may not have selected Yes or No for this optional pickup.) 

If you are staying somewhere to the east of Maumee Bay Lodge like Port Clinton or Sandusky, you can utilize an option to be picked up in the parking lot of City Hall in Port Clinton. This is not offered for every trip, but for trips that will be going past or to Port Clinton.

Picture
​After advancing to the next screen, you'll be taken to a screen that shows your agenda. The sessions and prices will be listed in chronological order.

There will also be Guest Information for the others that you registered. If you click the ^ on the right side of the screen aligned with the person's name, it will expand and show that person's agenda.

​The Guest Information displayed.

Picture
​At the bottom of the page that shows your agenda, there will be a code of conduct that is to be followed at The Biggest Week In American Birding. If you do not agree to the code of conduct, you cannot advance to the next screen.

Picture
​Under the code of conduct, the refund policy is listed. After April 26, 2024, cancellations received will not be refunded.

Click next to advance.

Picture
​The next screen will give you the total of your order. All of the registrations that you've entered will be in one transaction. Click the bubble next to Credit Card and then you can enter your payment information.

Picture
​After your payment is accepted, you will be taken to a page with your confirmation number and registration summary. 

You will also be sent an email with your registration details to the email that you used to sign up the primary registrant.

When registering multiple people (guests) the primary registrant will have to use their email and confirmation number to modify any of the people in the party.
