What is the dress code for the conference?
The dress code for the CORFAC Spring Conference is business casual, with the exception of the Awards Dinner which is a coat and tie. All off-site special events are casual attire.

I don’t see a Dine Around on the registration form -- is one still being held?
The Dine Around is Wednesday evening and begins at 7:30 pm. The restaurant, Citizen Public House, is located within walking distance of the host hotel. Attendees will pay for their individual meal at the time of the dinner. The Dine Around is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Meet in the hotel lobby at 7:15 p.m. The first 10 attendees in the lobby will receive a seat at the restaurant. No advanced sign up is available.

If I have already submitted my registration, can I still sign up for any tours or special events?
Yes. Contact Diann Harris at diann@corfac.com to make additions to your registration prior to the start of the conference. If you would like to sign up for any other tours or events while in Scottsdale, please visit the registration desk on-site.

Are the committee meetings open to any attendee?
Yes. The only two committee meetings not open to general attendees is the Executive Committee meeting on Thursday and the Past Presidents Committee meeting on Friday. Besides these two, attendees are encouraged to attend any and all committee meetings, as well as the Saturday Board Meeting, to get a feel for what CORFAC is working on both now and for the future.  

Who should attend the Saturday morning Principals Caucus? 
The Principals Caucus session is open to all CORFAC members in attendance at the conference. 

When will the CORFAC Spring Conference App be available?
An e-mail will be sent to all conference attendees in mid-February with instructions on how to download and install the app on your electronic device. The CORFAC Spring Conference App provides all of the details on the conference and is updated in real-time if any schedule or room changes occur. 

Anything else I need to know?
A daily e-mail will be sent to all conference attendees with a lineup of the day’s events, including any changes to the schedule. The registration desk will be open on Wednesday afternoon and all day Thursday if you have any questions once you arrive on-site.
