Invoicing:

Nomination fees will be invoiced from the SLAA office and will be emailed to the person who submits the nomination. All fees must be paid by Friday, February 7, 2025. If your nominations have not been paid by this date, they may not be included for judging.

Due to printing and signage lead times, all invoices for sponsorship must be paid in full no later than April 25, 2025. Any invoices paid after April 25, 2025 could cause your company to be excluded from promotional materials.

St. Louis Apartment Association Event Cancellation Policy:

We understand that plans can change; however, due to the commitments we must make with vendors and venues, the following cancellation and no-show policies apply to all of our events:

  1. Cancellation After Deadline:
    The deadline to register for events is 10 days prior to the event date, unless otherwise noted.  Cancellations made after the registration deadline will not be eligible for a refund. Once the deadline has passed, we are unable to accommodate refunds or event credits, as event logistics will have already been finalized.
  2. No-Show Policy:
    If a registered participant does not attend the event ("no-show"), they will still be responsible for the full cost of the event. No-shows will be invoiced for the full amount of their registration, as their space has been reserved and event expenses incurred.
  3. Events Including Meals:
    For events where meals are provided, registrants who cancel after the deadline or do not attend will still be charged the full ticket price, including the cost of the meal. This ensures that costs associated with pre-ordered meals are covered.
  4. Substitutions:
    If you are unable to attend an event, you may send someone in your place. Please notify us of any substitutions prior to the event date.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Our cancellation and no-show policy ensure the success of our events and helps us manage costs efficiently for all attendees.
