Hotels:

It is the responsibility of each attendee to make their own reservations. We advise that you guarantee the room for late arrival since reservations are usually held only until 6 p.m. Please use your hotel as your message center since the Von Braun Center is not equipped to take messages for conference attendees (computers will be available for you to use in checking e-mail).
