We hope you don’t have to miss out on the fun, but we understand that things happen. Here’s our cancellation policy. CAN I BRING ANYONE WITH ME? Your friends and family are more than welcome to join you for the trip to Tulsa, and one guest above the age of 18 may pay to attend Convention events with you. The Tulsa Convention and Visitor’s Bureau website has ideas for things to do around town while you’re in meetings. Nursing babies are welcome; we just ask that you please excuse yourself if your wee one starts disturbing others. UBAM will not provide childcare options, but check our Convention Facebook Event page to connect with other Consultants who may be organizing childcare during Convention. IT’S FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, RIGHT? Yes. Well, mostly. Team Leaders land in Tulsa on Thursday for leadership training from our keynote speaker and others. (To attend this training, you need to be a Team Leader, register separately and incur an additional cost). Following the Team Leader training, many teams gather Thursday evening for networking, recognition and fun. Check in with your Team Leader to see when and where your team meeting will be.
