Payment must accompany the registration form, either as a check or money order or by credit card via Pay Pal credit payment services (email Diane your form for an invoice and instructions for credit card payment). You do not need a Pay Pal account to pay with credit card. On-site registration will not be possible due to the field station meal planning requirements.

Accomodation: Accomodation at the Flathead Lake Biological Station comes in three flavors: Stillwater Dorms, Swan Cabins, or Fisher Cabins. Costs vary depending on type of accommodation.
