The packet contains name badges, admission tickets to the Fair and Exposition Center, and other information. Someone will be at the conference registration table until 1:00 p.m. to hand out registration materials to states that arrive late that morning. Packets need to be picked up by 1:00 p.m. If arriving late, let the committee know ahead of time so arrangements can be made for the packet pickup, and make sure everyone from your state is pre-paid in full. |
