PACKAGE PLAN ITEMS
Proud Sponsor of the
Nationals Drill Camp
Schreiner University
All schools attend the Nationals through the Team Package Plan. These prices are kept as LOW as possible while still ensuring the costs to host the meet are covered. Within these packages there are four different package plan levels for schools to be able to attend with many budgets. While all levels offer the exact same mementos, they differ in either the number of hotel nights and/or in the over luxury of the overall hotel accommodations. Below you will find an explanation of the different package levels and who is eligible to request a specific level. Schools will choose for the ENTIRE PROGRAM which package level your entire group will choose to attend the event under.

Because everyone becomes a part of the Team Package Plan at the level that is chosen by your school, we are able to easily organize this multi-thousand person event and also obtain quality oceanfront hotels, shirts, medallions, patches, pictures, quality judges, and the spectacular competition and Awards Gala. This is all done at a price that everyone can afford while still paying for all of the event costs. Through this package, everyone pays their fair share of the expenses of the NHSDTC.

NOTE: Thanks to the support of the U.S. Army Cadet Command and other supporters, the NHSDTC competition is open to the general public and no tickets or other passes will be required to enter. For detailed information on this policy, please review the Spectators Information link.

The Team Package Plan provides everyone with oceanfront accommodations. Below is a grid outlining exactly what each paying individual will be provided:

IMPORTANT NOTE: The prices below are the prices paid to attend and be a part of the NHSDTC competition in Daytona Beach, Florida. Many schools put together a package plan for their team that may include our prices for everything listed below, plus add money for any of the following necessary items for this type of trip: transportation (bus or plane), food (daily or one special meal), entertainment (theme park, etc.). If your team is quoting prices higher than those listed below, ensure you know what these monies are being used for and what you will be receiving for that extra money.

HOTEL PACKAGE PLAN LEVEL 4-to-a-room 3-to-a-room 2-to-a-room 1-to-a-room Extra Nights
TWO-NIGHT STANDARD PACKAGE $144.00/person $169.00/person $214.00/person $326.00/person $129.00/night
THREE-NIGHT STANDARD PACKAGE $162.00/person $209.00/person $272.00/person $449.00/person $129.00/night
THREE-NIGHT UPGRADE PACKAGE $199.00/person $234.00/person $307.00/person $525.00/person $155.00/night
3-NIGHT PREMIUM (includes Hilton)
$218.00/person $260.00/person $348.00/person $599.00/person $182.00/night

Several schools choose to come early or stay later than the standard 3 day packages, which is why the "extra night" cost is listed. This extra night cost is a PER ROOM, PER NIGHT COST, not per person as the other four, three, two and one per room package prices are quoted. SNI has always tried to keep the cost of these extra nights at the lowest possible level to better allow your team to extend their stay should they wish!

HILTON OCEAN WALK EVENT HEADQUARTERS INFORMATION
The Hilton is the event headquarters and is located DIRECTLY across the street from the Ocean Center Arena. For those with the budget, it is without question the most convenient and most luxurious property in use for the NHSDTC. Space is LIMITED at this property. Make your interest in staying at the Hilton on the Hotel Preferences link on your MySchool website after you are registered. A request is never a guarantee although we do try to accommodate as many requests as possible.


    A FEW OTHER IMPORTANT BULLET ITEMS!
  • All "to-a-room" prices listed are per person prices for the entire time. Extra night costs are a "per room / per night" cost for room nights stayed beyond the package nights listed.
  • Bus Driver rooms are charged at the extra nights cost, per room/per night. Bus Drivers do not receive any package materials through this room-only price.
  • Most hotels at the Nationals are oceanfront accommodations that feature either two double beds (which is the majority of rooms) or one bed (king or queen) per room with rooms blocked with a husband/wife or one individual in the room. Some rooms are located about 5 miles away near the Daytona International Speedway.
  • The 3-Night Standard Package Level feature standard, oceanfront accommodations.
  • The 3-Night Upgrade Package features more deluxe hotel accommodations at one of several upgraded Daytona Beach hotels. The 3-Night Hilton Ocean Walk Resort Headquarters Package features resort accommodations at the Hilton Ocean Walk Resort, located directly across the street from the Ocean Center.
  • Rooms within the Upgrade & Hilton Ocean Walk Resort Headquarters packages are VERY limited in quantity. Schools will be accepted into these levels based on the Package Level Request Form and a variety of factors including number of rooms, schools returning to the same hotel, etc. All schools requesting an upgraded package will be notified on or about February 15th of their upgrade status so they may plan for this level of attendance and cost.
  • Hotel assignments are not finalized until approximately 7-10 days AFTER the rooming list deadline. After this is finalized, hotel contact information will be forwarded to your school.
  • ALL HOTELS (except the Hilton Headquarters) require GROUND TRANSPORT. Schools not attending the event through the Hilton HQ Package WILL REQUIRE ground transport to get to/from the Ocean Center. Very few other hotels are in easy walking distance with equipment and schools should NOT plan on getting one of these coveted hotels.
  • Very few hotels have any form of "breakfast." Those that have one, the quality can vary GREATLY from year to year. Determination on whether a property is an UPGRADE or STANDARD hotel has very little to do with whether they have milk and donuts sitting out in the morning - it is an overall presentation of the hotel and the service you will receive. We STRONGLY recommend all teams plan for giving youngsters food of YOUR choosing to ensure they eat well.
