All events at the conference will fall under one of the following three categories. Specific information, hotel contacts, menus and catering request forms will be available to all by December 1, 2008. It is not necessary for you to classify your event. The below is general information only.

Non NASPA Funded Events

Institutional receptions, meetings and other miscellaneous events that will not be funded/sponsored by NASPA, would fall under this category. These groups will work directly with the hotel to coordinate food and beverage, set-up, AV, etc and will also work out billing arrangements directly with the hotel. There is no charge for the use of the meeting room.

NASPA Funded Events

These are typically meetings/events that occur during the national conference for NASPA leadership/members. These events are funded/sponsored by NASPA and will be applied to our master account with the facilities. Catering menus will be provided to you and all your arrangements will be coordinated and approved by NASPA staff. Menus and forms will be available online by December 1, 2008.
