NOTES on REGISTRATION:

How excursion selection works
You will choose TWO Saturday excursion options - a preferred and an alternative - when you register - spaces are limited and fill first-come, first-served.

Regarding travel times, be advised that Houston is a very large city.  Below are the expected ONE-WAY travel times to each location, in case this impacts your selection decision:

• NASA (80-95 minutes)
• Hermann Park - Zoo (60-75 minutes)
• Hermann Park - Museum of Natural Science (60-75 minutes)
• Mercer Botanical Gardens / Old Town Spring (45-60 minutes)

Conference T-shirt (add-on) 
We are excited to offer a subsidized conference T-shirt this year!  Show your GPHC spirit with a logoed conference tee for only $5!  Add one when you register, or pick one up on-site.  Quantities are limited and won’t last!
