  Attendees not staying within the official meeting/conference hotel block will be assessed a $125 fee per registration. This policy will not be implemented once the hotel block is sold out. The availability of a preferred room type will not provide an exemption from this policy.

  Only registered conference attendees can take advantage of the FCCLA-negotiated conference room rates within the FCCLA housing block dates. To accommodate FCCLA members and for the safety of all attendees, every guest staying within the FCCLA conference block must be registered for the conference.

  If you wish to arrive early or stay longer, the FCCLA rate will be good for up to three nights before and after the conference dates, based on availability.
