Room Reservations

Make your hotel reservations early - don't be shut out. The hotel usually fills its weekends in January and headhunters have been turned away in the past. You also risk losing the $69.00 convention rate and have to pay $129.00 or more. Rember you must cancel your room 72 hours prior to arrival. If you have a last minute emergency, talk to both the hotel and to Maddy Gordon and they will try to accommodate you.
