Please use one of the conference hotels when booking rooms. We value our partnership with the hotels that have generously offered discounted rates to our association. Utilizing these contracted hotels establishes our commitment to them and allows us to lock-in great rates in the future.
Please be cognizant of other offices when reserving multiple rooms. Overbooking rooms and NOT canceling them before the cut-off date creates unused rooms that can become financial responsibility to TDCAA and causes offices to book non-TDCAA hotels at much higher rates.
