If you have been thinking that it would be nice to have a hotel room at the Traditions/Innovations CNCH 2012 conference – NOW is the time to make that reservation. Conference special pricing ends on April 27th.
You can use the room as a private retreat from the hustle and bustle of the conference – or you can gather up 1, 2 or 3 friends and make it an economical way to make the conference easier.
Just think – a room just upstairs from The Market Place where you can drop off your purchases – no lugging of big bags of goodies with you all day. A place where you can run up to during a break in class to change shoes, or get a sweater – so much easier that wishing you had brought that sweater from home.
So, yes, you can get to the conference on BART, but do you really want to? Won’t it be more fun to hang out with friends after the events of the day and share what you’ve learned and bought. A place to make plans for guild programs and field trips and the next weaving or spinning project with friends?
The hotel rooms all have small refrigerators and there are many nice coffee shops and restaurants within the hotel and just blocks of the hotel. A handout listing the restaurants and their hours is online here and will be available on paper at conference check-in.
So go to www.cnch.org/conferences/2012-oakland/facilities/ for more information, the phone number and a link to the online Marriott reservations (and all the codes to get the discounted rate).
