NOTICE: ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ is the only official Conference housing bureau. Be aware of third parties placing calls or sending emails identifying themselves as the “official” housing bureau for Conference or claiming to be “affiliated with” or “working on behalf of” ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ for Conference housing. Sometimes these companies illegally use the ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ or event logo and other information to appear legitimate. Often, they issue a warning that room blocks are selling out while providing the lure of a lower room rate. Booking through these third parties may subject attendees to, at worst, credit card fraud opportunities and/or no room reservations in their names upon arrival at the Conference, and at best, lower-tier hotels, or a hotel away from the Conference host hotel. If you are contacted by anyone other than ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ staff regarding your housing, please get as much information as you can and report it to: Natalie Duke.
