Online RSVP Response (Yes or No ) Required for All Members of the All-Florida Team

In order to RSVP that you are planning to attend or unable to attend, you must go to the online RSVP (address provided in your letter or e-mail invitation) and complete the requested information. We need all members of the All-Florida Academic Team to complete this information, even if you are not planning to attend the events in Tallahassee. This will ensure that we can communicate important information about potential scholarships to you and send medallions/resolutions to the proper addresses.

The website will provide you with the opportunity to RSVP for yourself and a maximum of two (2) guests. You and your guests will not be charged for the luncheon. However, if you or guests later find that you are unable to attend after submitting the RSVP, please contact Andrew Myers to cancel your RSVP. This will help us to minimize any unnecessary costs.

Please complete this online RSVP no later than April 1, 2008.
