Accommodation:

Change of Hotel! - Unfortunately, the Conference hotel, Best Western Rolling Hills, has just announced that it will close on May 31st for renovations. There is a concern about possible diminishing of services prior to this on the part of the Conference Organizers. Indeed, the Hotel has withdrawn its previous undertaking to guarantee airport and conference shuttles.

Participants may therefore wish to consider changing their booking to: Hampton Inn (3 miles from Conference venue) 7801 SW 6th St. (off South University Drive) Plantation, Florida 33324. Tel: 954-382-4500. Fax: 954-382-4510: toll free: 1-800-675-2116. E-mail: sstern@princebush.com.

We do apologize for any inconvenience. The Hampton Inn is making a special offer rate for a double room with hot/cold continental breakfast at the same rate of $69.00 if participants quote “NAALT 2005”. The hotel will provide shuttle service on telephone request from or to Ft. Lauderdale airport. A Conference bus will pick up participants from the Hampton Inn on Friday afternoon on May 20th at 12:30 pm calling en route at Best Western Rolling Hills at 12:40 pm. Registration commences in the Terry Building, Nova Southeastern University at 12:30 pm. The Hampton hotel shuttles will also be between the hours of 8:00am - 11:00pm.

The NAALT local Secretariat [ 1-800-356-0026 ext.5327] can provide information on other neighborhood or beach front hotels, although transport will be a participant’s own initiative.

Entertainment:

An 'accompanying persons' program will be available on the Saturday. The Conference Dinner on Saturday, May 21, is planned to involve an evening cruise on the Intercoastal Waterways, dining on a nearby island.
