There are many AA conferences held around the world. One of the most common misconceptions about these gatherings is that they are AA meetings, and since there are no dues or fees for AA membership, there should be no fees to attend.
This roundup is self-supporting. No AA, Al-Anon or Alateen group monies are used to pay for this event, No baskets are passed. The cost of the event is paid through the registration fees. The registration fee is modest compared to a weekend's worth of entertainment elsewhere. Attendance is voluntary and as responsible AA members, we pay our own way.
The Duluth Roundup is a special event, not a regular meeting. The Roundup Committee spends months in planning and preperation. This event is held at the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center and there is a charge for use of the facilities. Along with this charge, the facility require that the group purchase food and coffee. Other expenses include travel and lodging for the speakers, printing of flyers and schedules, postage, and supplies. A large event requires a substantial amount of money.
In addition to the countless hours of committee members contribute in planning throughout the year, they too are required to pay for their registration to attend the events.
