Catering

After receiving a room assignment, each affiliate sponsoring a catered event is responsible for contacting the catering representative to arrange for all food/beverage for its events, including establishing credit and/or making prepayment as required. You should contact the caterer at least a month in advance of your event—your group may be required to prepay (depending on order, number of attendees, etc.). To avoid problems at the meeting, you should clarify any matter of concern well in advance. It is best not to assume that everything is in order—during the four-day event, there are several dozen breakfasts, luncheons, coffee hours, and receptions. It never hurts to give a final check to your arrangements. In most cases, a final guarantee is due within 72 hours of your event.
