Convention Registration - Page 2

All,

After communicating with the hotel, the Reservations Manager let me know that Holiday Inn is having some computer network reservation issues. They are working on this, but although all reservations seem correct, it is still difficult to impossible to make a convention reservation online. As a result, she has asked me to let everyone know that it would be best to simply contact her at the hotel directly.

She was very helpful and wants to make sure that all of you get your reservations made without any issues. Her e-mail text reads:

"Please have your members contact the hotel at 301-694-7500 and ask for IN-HOUSE reservations. Most of the time this will be transfered to my extension. If I do not answer please leave name and telephone number and I will contact the person back to make their reservation. They may also ask for me (Suzy) at extension 143 or call my direct line 240-215-2086. Those that would rather can email me at: suzanne.glunt@archonhospitality.com and I will get back to them that way. I will do all I can to make this all go smooth with reservations.

Sincerely,
Suzy Glunt/FOM-reservations manager"

I am trying to get an 800 number, which I will post here as well. If you are affiliated with a local chapter of AROC or ARA, please forward this information to your chapter leadership so that they can disseminate it to the rest of your chapter.

May I ask that any further discussion of the hotel reservations be moved to the more appropriate Hotel thread? Thank you. That will allow this thread to be kept to the discussion regarding Convention Registration.

Gordy--You are correct. But does it matter what floor the bar is on as long as there is one? I did get my room reservation this morning.--Harly

I have a question on registration. Having a 11 yr old and 14 yr old, are there kid prices on the meals (e.g., swap meet cook-out, Sunday brunch)?
Is it better to just opt out (at least for the 11 yr old, who wouldn't begin to eat enough to justify the price)???
Also, on time trialing, rental cars allowed?
Thanks,
Judy

125 registered as of this morning!

+1... I just registered.

(Now John M is shaking like a leave on a tree in the middle of a wind storm,... although he still has time to fix his slow colored ride!

)

That's a great registration page, Alex! The process was straightforward and a pleasure to use.

Best regards,

Alex:

I have been trying to access the on-line registration for the Convention all day and it continually gets stuck. I have tried linking via the alfabb,the AROC-USA site, and directly through the Capitol Chapter site and get the same results. It goes into an infinite loop of the green dialog box that says "You are about to access a secure internet connection..." and when you click to confirm it just brings the box back and it keeps doing it no matter how often you click. Using Task Manager says that the program is running, and if you try to "End Task" it says the program is waiting for "input from you".

Is this just a glitch for today?

Thanks
