All clinic activities will take place on the campus of Hinds Community College, with lodging Thursday night provided at the Eagle Ridge Conference Center for those who plan to stay overnight.

If you have not let us know who your child plans to room with, please send an email by the end of the day Monday. Here are the costs for lodging:

3 students per room - $32 each
