Dinner Meetings

Unfortunately, the hotel's pricing went up this year. On the upside, the dinner buffet will include two entrées. The Tampa Bay Chapter will continue to subsidize the dinner meeting cost for the 2008 - 2009 season. The price for one hour of continuing professional education and the dinner buffet is $25.00.

The dinner meetings will be held at The Westshore Hotel, 1200 N. Westshore Blvd. Registration and social begin at 6:00 PM, followed by a buffet dinner at 6:30, and presentation at 7:00.

To make your reservation, please complete the form at the bottom of this page.  You can also make your reservation by emailing Wayne Boytim by 1:00 PM the Friday before the meeting date. Reservations will not be accepted after 1:00 PM on Friday. Walk-ups are always welcome, but will only be accommodated if space is available.

For the September meeting, the reservation deadline is extended to Tuesday, September 9th.

"No Show" Policy

The subject of “no shows” (that is making a reservation but failing to attend) at dinner meetings has been discussed previously in CFE NEWS. On the Friday prior to the meeting, we make our best guess as to the number attending. With that said, the Board implemented the following policy:

"No Show" is defined as not attending a meeting after making a reservation and not canceling the reservation by noon on the day of the dinner meeting. The first "no show" will be considered as a “grace” miss and will not be billed. Upon a subsequent "no show" the Chapter will bill for both missed meetings and for any meetings missed after that.
