POLICY ON BRINGING CHILDREN TO THE MEETING

Can I bring my child to the meeting?

Plant Biology is family friendly and we welcome parents of young children to attend the meeting. To ensure the safety and care of them, we have the following policy for attendees.

  1. Children should be supervised by their caregiver at all times in the Plant Biology 2009 meeting facilities.
  2. Children under the age of 18 are not allowed in the session rooms or exhibit hall unless they are fully registered attendees. All individuals over the age of 18 must be registered to attend the sessions.
  3. Children are not allowed in the exhibit hall during setup or breakdown for their safety. There are no exceptions.
  4. Do not leave your child unattended in the public areas of the meeting facilities, including restrooms, empty meeting rooms, hallways, lobbys, at registration, or sitting in hallways outside of meeting rooms.
  5. ASPB, partnering societies, meeting facilities, and meeting staff are not responsible for your children at any time.
Plant Biology 2009 provides information of child care facilities and options for parents attending the meeting.
