Residence Hall Room options are priced by person, not by room. Please register the total number of guests, do not register the total number of rooms. Room rates per guest are:
$115 per person for single occupancy
$90 per person for double occupancy
Please note:
*The number of available rooms for triple occupancy are limited, and typically fill up via team registrations. Thusly, triple rooms will not be available for purchase on our website. In the instance that all single rooms are occupied, Power of the Pen may contact you regarding accommodations for double rooms. We appreciate your flexibility with our available accommodations.
**An adult cannot room with a child, unless the adult is the parent or guardian of that child. All students must have an adult chaperone in the residence halls, who will be responsible for students' safety and behavior.
After completing your residence hall room purchase, please complete the required 2025 State Tournament Guest Information Google form below to add your guest information.
Students shall be paired with other same sex students. Please designate on the Guest Information Google form who your student wishes to room with.
Linens are not provided: you must bring your own pillows, sheets, blankets, and towels.
Beds are Twin XL; most beds, if not all, are bunkbeds.
There is no air conditioning in the residence halls, guests are welcome to bring fans.
Restrooms will be same-sex on each floor in the residence halls. Restroom signage will be posted to indicate where you can find your restrooms in your residence hall. Example: 1st floor - female restrooms, 2nd floor - male restrooms, etc.
Meals are included in the room fee (Wednesday dinner, Thursday breakfast and lunch). You do not need to purchase additional meal packages.
Wednesday activities include two sessions of a creative writing workshop in the afternoon, book signing, and dance.
**Please submit any specific requests for accommodations to info@powerofthepen.org or include this information in the required Guest Information Google form; we will do our best to make accommodations based on availability and resources.
All purchases for residence hall rooms are by the individual. If you purchase one guest for a double room, please notate who they plan to room with. This option is available for instances in which student runners are volunteering at the tournament but are not included on the team registration form, but still plan to room with their teammates.
