Fraud Alert
Please note in past years we have had non-accredited organizations contacting individuals regarding the MFOA Conference. These companies may offer to help book your guest rooms for our conference at a discounted rate or claim to have promotional offers such as delegate lists. MFOA is not affiliated with any of these groups. These groups are not authorized by MFOA to contact our exhibitors. Please do not provide them your personal information or credit card details. MFOA has arranged room blocks directly with Deerhurst Resort. You can book your room using the instructions provided above.
