Protect Yourself from Scams

The official GSA housing bureau is Orchid.Events. To receive the GSA conference group rate at each hotel, reservations must be made through Orchid.Events and not directly with the hotels. GSA and Orchid.Events will not contact attendees directly to solicit new reservations. If you are contacted by a vendor who claims to represent GSA, please notify the GSA Meetings Department at meetings@geosociety.org or call +1-303-357-1041. Please do not make hotel arrangements or share any personal information through any means other than a trusted, reliable source.
