Safety Tips
- Please remember that we are in an urban area and the convention center and hotel are open to the public. Do not leave your bags or electronic devices unattended in meeting rooms or in public areas.
- Keep your valuables (passport, devices, etc.) in the hotel safe in your room.
- Remember that you must wear your badge throughout the conference spaces. This includes breakfast, the Exhibit Hall, all sessions and events, the Welcome Celebration, Annual Meeting of All Members, Annual Meeting of Voting Members, and at the after-hours events in the Oregon Convention Center and Hyatt Regency Hotel. If you are an ATA member and plan to attend the Board meeting on Saturday and/or Sunday, you must check in with ATA Interim Executive Director, Adrian Aleckna before you sit down.
- If you leave the hotel, go in a group. Take off your conference badge so you don’t stand out as a tourist. Please be sure to have some situational awareness and pay attention to your surroundings.
- You can also ask the front desk for more information about security and walking in the area around the
hotel. - Whether in the meeting room or your hotel room, be aware of the nearest exits in case of an emergency.
- In case of an emergency, please call 911.
