TWCA Fall Conference |
The TWCA Fall Conference will take place November 1-3, 2023 at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter. We will have our typical fall conference schedule, with two receptions, a Friday networking breakfast, committee/panel/board meetings, and speaker sessions, including keynote presentations from TCEQ Commissioner Emily Lindley and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District commander Rhett Blackmon. Early bird rates expire on October 6, so register early! |

Room Block. Reservations can be made here. Note that we currently do not have Tuesday night rooms available, so the block will show as full if you include Tuesday night in your reservation request. If you are unable to reserve your needed rooms, please fill out this waitlist form. We have sufficient rooms in our block and are almost always able to fulfill all waitlist requests, especially if you fill it out early. Please remember to always turn in any reservations that are no longer needed by emailing a confirmation number to Lisa Henley no later than October 20th. We appreciate your patience. |
