WHAT TO BRING
Attire for the educational sessions is business casual, and social gatherings are casual (bring your school spirit wear for the Opening Reception!). The Closing Party will be held at a very casual bar/venue in the Northgate Entertainment District - there will be indoor space available. However, we still recommend dressing for hot weather.

Bring a sweater, blazer, or wrap for the indoor educational sessions in case the meeting rooms are cold.

Don't forget to bring plenty of business cards to exchange with your colleagues!

MEALS
Breakfasts and lunches are served right outside the Century Ballroom. We do our best to accommodate those members with dietary restrictions and specific food items will be labeled. If you have specific needs, please email kathleen@tacvb.org.

DESTINATION TOUR
This year's Destination tour on Tuesday morning is sold out.

PRE-CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS
Please note you need to be registered in advance for the three pre-conference classes taking place on Tuesday: Women's Leadership Conference, Destination Marketing Principles, and Cheat Code Presentation Workshop

BID ON THE SILENT AUCTION
We have some wonderful prizes donated by our members and partners! Some of the amazing experiences include a Getaway to Fredericksburg, Dallas Stars tickets, Fort Worth Getaway at the Hotel Drover, gift baskets, and more! All funds raised benefit the Scholarship and Research Fund.
