    It would be very shortsighted for the SSA to deny a member of the organization access to the convention (and general membership meeting) simply because they had not pre-registered. The registration in advance of the convention is (or should be) just a
    method of planning for the expected number of attendees. Come on down! You will be welcomed like any other member. But you will pay a bit more.

    No worry - you can register on-site.

    According to the SSA newsletter, meal tickets for the various meals are
    very limited, so you may not be able to get into some events that you'd
    like to attend.
