There is wifi at the hotel, so if you need to send a few emails in the evening you will be able to do so; however we really encourage you to put up that “Out Of Office Reply,”

Q: Since lodging is not included in the registration fee, where should I stay? A: We chose The Hotel Roanoke because they are able to accommodate the conference and have sleeping rooms for attendees! It’s located in the heart of downtown Roanoke, so once you arrive you can walk to shops, a coffee house, bakeries, several restaurant options for dinner(s). You must call and make your own room reservation; please request the Creative At Heart Room Block so that you can receive the $149/night room rate! (You MUST call by March 1st to receive that price.)

Please utilize the Creative At Heart attendee Facebook group to carpool to & from the airport!

Sunday and Monday will have similar schedules: each day the conference will be approx. 8am-5:30pm with main speaker presentations, smaller breakout panels and lunch. We also have a special Late Night Treat planned for Sunday night!!

After you register you will invited to join the Creative At Heart Attendee Facebook group; we want you to jump in and start getting connected with each other now, so that the hugs are even sweeter in March!! If you’re still nervous, please email us for a quick pep talk!! We have met some of our dearest friends at conferences and know you will do the same!

Q: Can I bring my family? A: One of our goals for Creative At Heart is to provide an inviting place to build purposeful community. In ever session, during lunch, in PJs laughing in your hotel room… we want you to be able to grow & connect with one another!! We want you to create lasting moments with friends – both new and old!! In light of that, we recommend you not bring your spouse or children, unless you are a nursing mother.

Q: We are a husband/wife team, can we both attend? A: Of course! While our conference is geared toward women, we are very welcoming of husband & wife teams attending. Your hubby will be the minority in the room, so as long as he’s comfortable with that (and all the pink decor!), we know that you both will learn so much in the sessions to apply to your business!

We are thrilled that they will be joining us and can’t WAIT to grab a bowl of popcorn and watch the film after the fact!!)

Q: I’m not able to attend the March Creative At Heart Conference, will there be another one? A: Yes! Sign up for the newsletter to be the first to hear details!

Q: Can I attend just one day of the conference? A: If you are unable to attend both days, you can choose to attend just one but no discounted prices will be offered. We hope you will be able to attend both to be able to have the full experience!
