REGISTRATION REQUIRED
FOR EACH WORKSHOP
Each regular Conference registrant can attend two to three
sessions, depending upon the length of those selected, and
can visit the Exhibit Hall, view video shows and attend the
Convocation at the end of the day. Preregistration is required,
and you must select your workshops as you register, so that
tickets can be sent to you. These tickets will tell you the
time, the building, and the room where the class you have
chosen will be conducted.
EXHIBIT HALL
If your cooperative is investigating a building-wide computer
system, or new windows, or refinancing its underlying mortgage,
or considering whether electronic towers or relays on the
roof might be a new source of income, or seeking the best
insurance protection -- or if your condominium is concerned
about the condition of the elevator or the building envelope,
or is ready to redesign the lobby, or upgrade the laundry
facilities or resolve water bill questions, help is to be
found in the Exhibit Halls. There, dozens of exhibitors --
including representatives of several city agencies -- will
show their products and services. You can see and touch new
products, ask questions of competing companies, collect literature,
and begin the selection process. The Exhibit Hall is open
from 8 AM to 3 PM, with complimentary coffee and tea available
throughout the day. Plan to arrive early in the morning for
a preliminary visit to the exhibits before your first seminar.
You can also exhibit-hop during the lunch break, when snacks,
beverages and box lunches can be purchased from the catering
service in the Exhibit Hall. A number of exhibitors will offer
door prizes to be awarded at the Convocation at the end of
the day. Every Conference registrant receives a name badge
which admits them to the exhibit area at no additional cost.
To attend only the exhibits and the video theater, cut out
the complimentary ticket on the cover of the CNYC Newsletter.
Additional tickets for the exhibits and videos can be purchased
for $5. They are valid from 8:30 AM until 3:00 PM.
VIDEO PRESENTATIONS
CNYC's television show, CO-OP ROUNDTABLE, is presented throughout
the day. The annual Conference Brochure and program lists
the schedule of these shows. All Conference registrants and
holders of Exhibit area tickets are welcome at the videos.
Workshops registrants can view shows early in the morning
or during the lunch break, or they can plan a day that combines
workshops and videos.
FEE SCHEDULE
Each cooperative and condominium that is a current member
of the Council of New York Cooperatives & Condominiums can
send one representative to this Conference at no cost. For
others, registration fees vary depending on the status of
your building, the timing of your registration, and whether
you take advantage of the team registration opportunity. Check
the Conference Brochure, inserted in the Summer and Autumn
issues of the CNYC Newsletter, for details and for the registration
form. Advance registration is strongly encourage as it facilitates
appropriate room assignments, and, in some cases, enables
participants to submit questions or topic requests for the
sessions they have chosen. Tickets will be mailed to all those
registered by November 10th. Later registrants should allow
extra time to pick up their tickets at the Conference. Tickets
are required for entry to each workshop. Carefully consult
your ticket and the Conference Program for the location of
your workshops. Report to CNYC Headquarters for your Conference
materials when you arrive.
CONVOCATION
At the end of the day, all participants are invited to gather
for refreshments and the awarding of door prizes. There, CNYC
leaders will highlight the year's successes for cooperatives
and condominiums and to honor a prestigious advocate of cooperatives
and condominiums.
