No sales rep available today at the Courtyard Marriott - someone will call me back. The Courtyard Marriott and the Crystal Gateway Marriott (where the convention is hosted) are sister hotels and run a shuttle back and forth between each other. There are atleast 25 rooms currently available at the Courtyard for the convention dates. Rick will talk to the Crystal Gateway today to see if he can work things out from that end. If he cannot get more room nights at the convention rate from him, we'll try and get them to work something out with the Courtyard. If that doesn't work - we'll try to work something out with the Courtyard directly and get discounted room rates for our group. That's what I'm trying to do now so that we have something in place in the event we need it - don't worry - no contract will be placed until the AGA has approved it. If all fails - we can simply direct people to get their rooms at the Courtyard directly. They do run a shuttle between hotels so it shouldn't be too much of an inconvinience. No worries - it'll all work out. Ghazanfar Ghori _______________________________________________ AGA-mcm mailing list AGA-mcm@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-mcm
