Our Women’s Encouragement Day on Feb. 4 is one of our most popular events!
Here are some Encouragement Day FAQs that should help you plan and prepare for the day:
I’m not a member of MPE at the Family tier or higher. Can I still come?
Right now we’ve closed registration because our maximum capacity has already been reached.
However, we hope to add more seats and re-open registration to both MPE members and anyone else who wishes to come on Friday, Jan. 20 (stay tuned for more updates)!
Why can’t I just show up and pay registration on the day?
Because of catering purposes, you MUST register on our website.
By registering in advance, you help us know how many lunches to order before the main event.
What can I bring to show I’ve registered?
You will receive a confirmation email when you register on our website.
If you do not have MPE membership at the Family tier or higher, you need to keep your payment receipt when you pay for the event.
Please bring your confirmation of registration (email or payment receipt), as you will be asked for it if any check-in hiccups arise on the day.
If you don’t receive a confirmation email, please check your junk mail folder. If you still can’t find it, contact us to complete your registration.
I have dietary restrictions. Can I still take part in the lunch and refreshments?
Our lunch always features gluten-free options for many of our attendees who have special dietary needs.
If you have other specific questions regarding the lunch, feel free to contact us ahead of time.
I already paid for admission but just found out I can’t come anymore. Can I give my ticket to someone else?
We’ve created a waitlist for this event as we often run out of seats while more moms are still trying to register.
If you find you can’t make it even though you’ve paid, please let our office know as soon as possible so we can release the seat to another mom on our waitlist. Unfortunately, tickets are nonrefundable.
One way we track attendance is by printing name badges for all our guests, so please let us know if you can’t come so we can adjust the number of badges to print.
Do you provide childcare?
We don’t provide childcare as the event is meant specifically for homeschool moms. However, we always feature a special mom’s nursing room. Nursing babies are welcome!
We have updated this blog post, originally updated in December 2016, for timeliness and detail.
If you have other Encouragement Day questions that aren’t on this list, please contact us. Thanks!
Is there some type of a convention for homeschool? I’m looking for different types of curriculum for my 4th grader.
Thank you!
Yes! Our conference is coming up on April 7-8 at the KCI Expo Center, and we have a list of conference vendors available (more will be added as they’re confirmed), including curriculum vendors.
Let us know if you have any more questions! 🙂
