Frequently Asked Questions
How much walking will I do at ALABGS?
-
Delegates will walk approximately 6 miles a day (comfortable shoes are a must) with minimal time in between sessions to get where you need to go!
I registered, how do I find out what interest group I am in?
-
You will be contacted approximately the first week of June to confirm which interest group you are placed in.
Can I order food to be delivered at night?
-
You are provided three all-you-care-to-eat meals a day. Due to this and the tight schedule, we do not allow food deliveries during the week.
I'm training for a marathon/cross country/other athletic event, am I able to run at some time every day?
-
Unfortunately, due to our schedule and staff resources, we will not be able to accommodate this request.
​
Can I leave for a period of time then return during ALABGS week?
-
Requests must be made through Executive Director, Joanie Dickerson, at bgs.exec.director@gmail.com
-
Note that ALABGS is a very engaging week, leaving for any length of time, would minimize the Delegate's ALABGS experience.
