Galaxy Registration & Questions

A note from the Galaxy Committee (JCEP):

By now you are aware that the opening of registration for Galaxy IV has been delayed. The Galaxy Committee is in the process of adding the final pieces of content to the system and hope to begin final testing by the end of the week. You will receive an email when registration is open. In the meantime, we are aware that you may have questions, so we've put together this "Delayed Registration FAQ" based on questions we are receiving. If you have further questions, feel free to contact us.

We look forward to seeing you in Pittsburgh!


Where is my association staying? You are free to stay at the hotel of your choice but if you wish to stay at the hotel designated for your association, please note the information below:

1. Omni William Penn- NAE4-HA
2. Renaissance- NEAFCS
3. Marriott City Center- NACAA
4. Wyndham- ESP and NACEP
5. Doubletree- ANREP

Can I reserve my room ahead of registering for galaxy? No, you must reserve your rooms during registration. There are rooms being held for the conference and room availability will not be a problem.

Can I reserve my room myself at the hotel? No, the hotel is coordinating all room reservations through the reservation system. Once you register your reservation request will be sent to the hotel and they will provide a confirmation number for your reservation which will be sent to you. Please review your reservation information closely upon receipt to make sure the reservation dates and room type are accurate.

What if my registration fee is being paid using funds that must be spent before June 1? We will assist those who must spend money before June 1st with registration prepayment. Please contact Laurie Yearick at 814-865-8301 to process your early payment. This will not register you for the conference. You must go in and register when registration opens and your early payment will then be applied to your registration.

What if I want to reserve a suite at the hotel? Suites are not an option in the registration process. If you would like a suite, please contact Mary Seaton at mbs13@psu.edu .

Who should I contact if I need more information?
Please contact Mary Seaton at mbs13@psu.edu

County Agent Magazine Mailed

The May, 2013 edition of The County Agent has been printed and has been placed in the mail.  Unfortunately, we have discovered an error that was made in the database file which was sent to the mailing house for postal addressing. Each of you have been mailed a copy to your address we have on file, but...the name column is incorrect. Please advise your front office staff that a copy of the magazine is on it's way...but will have an incorrect name listed.

Since the process of mailing across the country normally takes a couple of weeks for everyone to receive (and it just went in the mail last week)....please let me know in the next 10 days or so if you don't receive a copy. In the meantime - if you would like to review a digital version - please go  to: http://www.nacaa.com/countyagent/County%20Agent%202013-05%20web.pdf
