Hotel Reservations
Each reservation must be guaranteed with first night’s room, resort charge (waived), and tax with a major credit card. This deposit is due and will be charged on May 1, 2025, prior to the cut-off-date, and is subject to a “72 hour” cancellation policy to avoid forfeiture. Any reservation not canceled in accordance with the reservation policies (must notify hotel 72 hours prior to check in date if you need to cancel room reservation to avoid penalty) will be subject to a cancellation fee of one night’s room and tax, and will be charged against the individual’s deposit.
All attendees, including Extension faculty, staff, award recipients, retirees, and guests must register separately. Please complete a separate registration for each individual.
The Dean’s office is graciously providing $550.00 to county & state faculty attending this year’s conference. You must be present for all Wednesday and Thursday meals and sessions to receive the $550.00.

The EPAF Board has instituted a $100 Facilities Fee to encourage everyone to stay at the conference hotel. Before completing your on-line registration, you must have a hotel confirmation number.

The only attendees exempt from the facilities fee are those that: choose Daily Registration only or have an office within 50 miles of the resort.
