regarding registration, lodging and other expenses associated with attending

May I bring my family?
- RP participants are welcome to request private
housing, and bring their families to PCMI. The catered meals served at PCMI are
considered "working meals", and thus are for participants
only. All standard lodging comes with a fully equipped kitchen for the
use of your family. If you will require something larger than standard
lodging (a studio unit), an extra fee will be required.
In what kind of facility is PCMI held?
- PCMI is held at the Prospector Square Lodge
and Conference Center in Park City, Utah. Standard housing at the
Prospector Square is 1) a studio condo unit with either 2 queen beds or 1 queen
bed and 1 sleeper sofa, or 2) a private bedroom in a multi-bedroom condo
unit. Catered meals are served for all participants
at breakfast and lunch on the weekdays.
What options are available for dinner and
weekend meals?
- Park City is full of restaurants ranging from
fast food to very expensive. Also, there are two grocery stores within
walking distance of the Conference Center (or on the free bus route around Park City.) Both
grocery stores have extensive take-out sections.
Can I get around Park City without a car?
- A free city bus operates throughout Park City
and Deer Valley all day and well into the night.
What about child care?
- The Silver Mountain Spa next door to
Prospector Square has a drop-in service. Other options may be
available -- contact the PCMI office. Children should not be brought
to any of the PCMI program sessions.
