All BVA members are strongly encouraged to register immediately for the BVA National Convention with both BVA and the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront Hotel. Completing the registration process will ensure entry into all BVA-specific activities and meetings held July 7-10, 2024. To register and stay updated on the National Convention visit the BVA website here.

BVA has received two updates regarding your hotel stay:

  1. Incidentals: The hotel will authorize a one-time $50 charge for the entire stay. Each attendee will need to supply a credit or debit card for the room. The card will not be charged but authorized only for that amount. In the case of a debit card, the funds will be held by the bank until after you check out if the amount in full is not used.
  2. Hotel Deadline: To ensure you receive the convention rate you must make your hotel reservations prior to June 10, 2024. To make hotel reservations click here, or by phone at (800) 233-1234, and use Code G-ACOB.

Please ensure that Wednesday, May 22, at 2:00pm Eastern Time is entered in your calendar for the next Town Hall, a final general overview of the gathering in Jacksonville.
