A NOTE ABOUT WORKSHOPS: You do not have to sign up in advance for workshops, just go to whichever one you wish. Once we announce the workshop schedule, we will send out a survey for you to list which classes you may want to take so we can assign the proper size rooms. There is no obligation to attend the particular classes you choose, but it gives us a ballpark estimate of the number of attendees we need to plan for each workshop.OFFICIAL MIGHTY UKE DAY 15 HOTELThe SpringHill Suites by Marriott is a new, beautiful, facility just a short walk away from the University United Methodist Church where Mighty Uke Day 15 will be held.
