- Do not photograph, video, or audio record presentations. This policy applies to all attendees. The event coordinator may have one or more staff/volunteer members taking photographs and/or video recordings during the event.
Due to the number of individuals that will be in the conference areas, we do request that you refrain from using perfumes/colognes.
It can get overbearing in a large group for others and we try to be considerate of those that may have allergies.
