Who is Registering for NC Tomorrow and What Are the Details?

[PampMomof3]

Okay, just printed a list of the workshops and send out a reminder email to my team as well as other directors in my area to remind them what tomorrow is!

I'm wanting to get the hotel first thing tomorrow but I work! AHH! so hopefully it opens up in the afternoon like it did last year! I remember waiting around all morning and then it finally opened @ 1 here.

Krissy Walker and I are sharing a room! We did last year as well. I'm hoping 2 of my team member are going so keeping my fingers crossed!!

Who's registerering tomorrow?

[finley1991]

is your mom going?

She just told me yesterday that she's planning on it!

Also, I heard (honestly I hadn't really looked to see) that there is no career club lunch??? I'm disappointed because I thought we'd sit together again!!! We'll just have to figure something else out!

Do we know this or are we assuming because it isn't mentioned? They always did it during another general lunch so maybe??

 

[pamperedlinda]

Anyone landing at O'Hare on Monday around 9am?
I have a 1st time attendee who's landing at OHare while the rest of us are landing @ Midway - I am looking to find some nice people for her to meet up with at the airport and share a ride to the Sheraton.

Which hotel for that price? Is it near a conference hotel to use the shuttle service?

Last year we stayed at the Congress Hotel. It's just north of the Hilton and worked out really, really well. It's an OLD hotel, so it's not all bright and shiny, but we had a large suite and it was way cheaper! Check it out!

Hey did any of you have problems last year with getting a room online?

 

[Gagescorpages]

I'm hoping for the Hyatt McCormack...

Debbie,

Thanks for the info! I just reserved a room at the Congress. If we end up just being two in the room it'll just be less than $20 more than sharing with 4 at the Hilton. Parking is about the same so that's cool. Two blocks from the Hilton sounds easy - is it an easy walk?? Is the garage easy to access? - I'm guessing you drove since you live in IL...

2 people $180.03 each for 3 nights including tax (3 people $143.10; 4 people $124.63) vs $161.85 for 4 at the Hilton. Another thing I liked was that the cancellation policy is 24 hours so if we decide to go together with someone else later to get in the Hilton it will be easier to get my deposit back (just $120.02 and refunds to CC within a week).

Can anyone register yet? If so, what link is it?

 

[PCJenni]

not up yet

 

[finley1991]

According to the mail/fax-in form for the hotels, it opens at 10am CT. I'm *assuming* it will be the same online. (Take that for what it's worth!!!)

 

[PCJenni]

last year I think the registration opened on CC at 7 am PST and then the hotel opened after that.

 

[finley1991]

I'd like to get the hotel worked out first!!!!!

 

[PCJenni]

I agree about the hotel. I want the Hilton with the 2 bathrooms!

 

[PCJenni]

one of my consultant's just emailed me and said she called HO and they said it will be up later in the day. Don't you think it should be up at something like 6 am CT??? that would stagger out the registration between the east and west coasts

 

[jwpamp]

No, Jenni -- we wouldn't want to make it EASY.

 

[PCJenni]

he he he! Just seems to me that they would not want the servers overloaded because WE ARE ALL SITTING HERE WAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTING!!! and we are all going to be doing it at the same time!
