Little Rock BOMA is busily preparing to host the Southwest Regional Conference in April, and they want to update members in our region about some important planning items.

The hotel room block will be released on March 12 and rooms in downtown Little Rock will be hard, if not impossible, to come by after that date.

Also, the conference's early bird registration rate is only available through March 12. After this date, registration for Delegate and Associate will increase $50.

They've got a great line-up scheduled for participants, and the education sessions on Friday and Saturday will qualify for Texas and Oklahoma Continuing Education credit. The Saturday tour of the Heifer International headquarters and USGBC panel discussion is a great opportunity to find out about a hot topic in our industry.

There are also only seven sponsorships remaining.

Please make your plans to participate today!
