Mega bucks

To encourage full participation in the Mega Conference, the IBA offers a Mega Buck program that allows members to purchase multiple conference registrations at a discount. The Mega Buck program is exclusively available to IBA members and requires at least 10 Mega Bucks. A single MB covers either the golf tournament or one day of attendance at the conference. For example, a member employee who registers for two days will use two MBs; registering for golf would require a third MB. This year MBs are $150 each. Contact Molly Gibbs at the IBA office for the Mega Buck discount code prior to registering or if you have questions.
