The 2010 Grand
Arch Council is
right around the
corner. This
year marks the
75th gathering
of Phi Kappa
Psi's biennial
governing
meeting. We are
excited to be
gathering in
Orlando and the
Hilton in Walt
Disney World
Resort from July
28-August 1.
Registration is
now open, and
you may visit
the GAC
container on Phi
Psi Connect or
click
this link to
sign up for your
spot. While we
prefer you
register online
using your Phi
Psi Connect
account, you can
contact the
national
headquarters at
800-486-1852 to
register and pay
by phone.
The cost for
early
registration
(good until May
28th) is $275
for
undergraduates
and $300 for
alumni. For
members of the
Order of the
S.C. there are
special pricing
options in the
online process
as well.
Hotel
We have a
special rate
reserved with
the
Hilton of
$149 per night.
You may call the
hotel at
407-827-4000. Be
sure to mention
that you are
booking a room
in the "Phi Psi
Grand Arch
Council" block
to obtain a
hotel room at
the discounted
rate.
Remember:
Your
registration
cost covers the
convention only,
so you are
responsible for
booking your own
hotel room
.
Guests
Phi Psi
brothers are
welcome to bring
guests and/or
their families
to the Grand
Arch Council. In
fact, with the
family-friendly
environment of
Disney World as
our backdrop, we
hope to see more
fathers at this
GAC than ever
before. For
advance purchase
of specially
priced Disney
Meeting/Convention
Theme Park
tickets, please click

In the online
registration
process, you can
select a la
carte options
for your guests
in terms of
particular
activities.
Children have a
special rate of
$20 for the GAC
which covers
their admittance
to the Childrens
Banquet, taking
place at the
same time as the
final banquet of
GAC.
There is no
organized
spouses program
for the 2010 GAC
because of the
amount of
activity within
reach at the
resort.
Part-Time
Registration
For brothers
who may live in
Florida or would
like to only
attend for a
brief period of
time or specific
event, there is
the option to
register as a
part-time
attendee and
attend only
certain events.
You can select
the part-time
attendee feature
at the beginning
of the online
registration
process.
Note:
Part-time
attendees do not
receive credit
for having
attended the GAC.
This affects
S.C. credit, and
representation
status for your
chapter or
alumni
association
More information
will be sent to
those who have
signed up as we
near the date,
but the
tentative
schedule is
