The “10/10 Bring a Friend” program is continuing in 2010, after a successful launch in 2009. “New Shoalers” who are recruited to attend a conference by Returning Shoalers can fill out a discount request form to receive a 10% discount on room and board fees for one member of both parties. Returning Shoalers who recruit five or more New Shoaler individuals or families will be recognized for their efforts and presented with a special treat or two on the Island!

If a Returning Shoaler is successful in encouraging several people to register, will they get multiple 10% discounts?
No, the maximum room & board discount a Returning Shoaler can receive is 10%. However, Returning Shoalers who are successful in bringing five or more New Shoaler individuals to Star will receive special recognition and a treat or two while on-Island!

If a Returning Shoaler family is successful in getting a New Shoaler individual to register does the entire family get a 10% discount, or just one member of the family?
The program works on a one-to-one basis, so just one member of the family receives the 10% discount if a family recruits one individual. However, if the Returning Shoaler family recruits two New Shoalers, two members of the Returning Shoaler family will receive a discount. If the Returning Shoaler family recruits three New Shoalers, three members of the Returning Shoaler family will receive a discount, etc. Under all circumstances, the maximum room & board discount any individual is entitled to is 10% (whether they’re a New or Returning Shoaler).

Will SIC give the 10-10 discount to conferees already getting scholarship assistance from their conferences?
Yes.  We will not ask conferences for individual scholarship award information.

Will SIC disclose to the conferences who is receiving 10-10 discounts?
No.  Nor do we want to know who is receiving scholarship funds from the conferences.

Are people who have already applied eligible for the 10-10 discount?
Yes.  This discount is available to everyone who has registered already or who will be registering (for the 2010 season).

Is the 10-10 discount(s) applied to the entire bill?
No.  The discount applies to the room and board portion of the bill only.
