What’s the deal with the emphasis on required credentials anyway?  Well, even though we have booked all rooms in the hotel for this event, the casino venue is still open to the public.   We will repeatedly ask you to have and wear your conference credentials whenever you are in the ballroom (you will be required to display them in order to enter), or in any of the hospitality events or comedy night.  Please do not wear them when in the casino.  We have actually had a number of unauthorized intrusions into the conference over the years.  If you lose your credential, please contact a WHIA staff member to get a replacement.  Thank you for your cooperation on this.  

FIREARMS:   This venue is very supportive of law enforcement and imposes no  restrictions on carrying firearms other than open/visible carry in the actual casino is prohibited.
