• If you must cancel, please let us know in advance so we can notify those on our waiting list.

• A change in the number of people in a room will affect the rate charged per guest. Please let us know of any changes in advance so that we can recalculate your rate prior to your arrival.

• Reservations for partial conference stays will not be taken more than one month prior to the start of the conference.

• All rates include a package of meals, lodging and program. We cannot offer refunds for missed meals.

• If your first choice of accommodations is not available, we will assign you the closest comparable room and place you on a waiting list for your first choice.

RV USERS
Sites are available during the summer at four different trailer / RV campgrounds within four miles of Cannon Beach. Prices and facilities vary, so call the park direct or our registration office for more information. Reservations are encouraged at all four sites during the summer.

CHILDREN AT ADULT CONFERENCES
To limit distractions, children and infants are not permitted at adult, couples, women and men’s week-end conferences.

HOW TO FIGURE YOUR RATE
1. Decide on the type of lodging preferred. (See lodging price list.)

2. Use the daily rate corresponding to the number people in the room.

3. Multiply the daily room rate times the number of nights of your conference.

5. Add 7% city room tax to the lodging fee.

6. Add meal cost based on the meal price list.

7. Note that the Retirees and some specially designated conferences receive a 15% discount on lodging.

8. Call our Registration Office at (800) 745-1546 if you have questions.

SCHOLARSHIPS
We realize that not every family, single or couple can afford the total cost of a week or week-end at the Conference Center. Costs inevitably rise and family situations change, either temporarily or permanently. However, we would like to provide the conference experience for all who really desire to come. For that purpose, a scholarship program has been set up for specified conferences, and scholarship money has been raised.

If you or someone you know cannot afford the total cost of attending a conference, contact the registration office for further information and submit an scholarship application.  Scholarship applications can be requested from the registration office by calling (503) 436-1501 or downloaded here.  Applications can be mailed or faxed to CBCC (503) 436-1047.

If you wish to make a donation to the scholarship fund, mark your tax-deductible gift “Scholarship Fund.”

PARTIAL WEEK MINI-VACATIONS
Can’t get away for a whole week this summer? Offered on a space available basis, beginning one month prior to your selected summer conference, guests may choose to stay from one to six days depending on schedule and finances.

Reservations for partial weekend attendance may be made two weeks prior to the conference. Call the registration office for details and to make reservations.

EXTENDED WEEKENDS
Those attending our Spring and Fall weekend conferences have the option of coming early or staying a day later for that extra bit of relaxation beyond the actual conference time.

Meals for that day are on your own, so you can sleep in and treat yourself to a cinnamon roll from one the local bakeries or enjoy dinner at your favorite area restaurant.

Extensions are limited to weekend conferences only. Call the registration office for room availability and to answer questions. (Cost for the extra night is the daily room rate, less 20%.)

BIBLE TEACHER TOPIC
Speakers are not asked to supply their teaching topics ahead of arrival. We feel this allows the Bible teacher to seek the Lord for direction, even up to the last moment, and focus on what they feel most strongly fits the conference.

SNOWBIRDS
For our friends with multiple addresses, please send the address of each of your homes (with usual dates of residence) to receive your annual registration brochure and Selah newsletters at the correct address.
