Important Note – Buyer Beware

Please be vigilant if dealing with any companies or services other than Connections Housing that imply or claim an affiliation with Vision Expo. Unfortunately, past attendees have fallen prey to these companies and were unable to recuperate the money they spent on rooms that did not exist.
