Overview
We have a wide variety of meeting facilities to meet your needs. Our meeting rooms come in all shapes and sizes, and can accommodate from 10 people to 1,200 people.
Meeting facilities are assigned according to your group size. Because we normally serve multiple groups at one time, we generally do not assign meeting rooms until the week before your arrival. If you have a group of more than 200, or if you have exclusive use of the center, then we can make assignments earlier.
Chairs and at least one table are provided. Other equipment or additional tables are available for rental. Groups are responsible for setting up their meeting room and cleaning it before departure. Center staff can set up the room for you for an additional fee.
