Important Note: Beware of travel scams. If anyone claims to be affiliated with a travel or convention housing agency and offers to book a hotel room for this event, DO NOT provide your contact or payment information. This is a scam. NARUC has not contracted with any such firms. Occasionally, these companies falsely claim to be the official housing bureau or room representative for NARUC.
