Annual conference registration is on track to reach a record high.

As of February 5, over 2,400 individuals registered for the 2013 NIRSA Annual Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.

With registration number surpassing stats from last year every day, we are quickly approaching the largest number of attendees to ever register for annual conference.

Don’t make this the year that you miss out on the premiere gathering of collegiate recreation professionals from all over the world.

NIRSA 2013 - Bally's
The 2013 NIRSA Annual Conference and Expo is mere weeks away!

With the co-location with ACPA, there has never been so much to choose from. Attendees will have access to over 100 NIRSA sessions and 500 ACPA sessions, making this year’s resources and events as robust and dynamic as our growing community. Join in our stand out events, like the Opening General Session and All Conference Social, which are sure to be of Vegas-size grandeur. If you haven’t registered yet there is still time, register online or use the downloadable pdf.

Don’t forget to book your hotel reservations, as well. While the NIRSA block is filled at Planet Hollywood and Paris locations, Bally’s will be providing discounts and perks to NIRSA members who book a room via the NIRSA block by February 14, 2013. Attendees who book their hotels through a NIRSA block will receive complimentary Wi-Fi, a reduced rate to the fitness centers, and several other perks.

The perks don’t stop at your hotel check-in. The first 2,500 people to pick up their badges at NIRSA registration will receive a NIRSA messenger bag and pedometer to track all the walking you will be doing during conference. The more steps you track on your pedometer while walking from one great NIRSA 2013 event to the next, the more raffle tickets you can earn toward a Spinner® Blade, manufactured by Star Trac in the Expo.
