Message from Diane McGeorge Regarding 2016 Washington Seminar Reservations
 
This message is to advise you all that Washington Seminar will be held January 24-28, 2016, with the Great Gathering In taking place on Monday January 25. Additionally, I wanted to inform you that I will no longer be managing reservations for this event. With the Holiday Inn Capitol’s progressive policy changes and renovations having been completed, it seemed like a natural progression that we turn the reservations over to the hotel. We no longer need to document special requests such as smoking or non-smoking rooms, refrigerators in rooms or request for rollaway beds since the rooms now have queen beds and can no longer accommodate rollaways. The reservation process has become very standard, requiring check-in and check-out dates only, just as you experience with national conventions. This process will allow you to have full control of your reservations and any changes you need to make.
 
You can now reserve a room at the Holiday Inn Capitol (550 C Street, SW, Washington, DC 20024) for Washington Seminar with check-in beginning Saturday, January 23, 2016, check-out by Friday, January 29, 2016. The rate is $184.00 per night. This rate does not include DC sales tax, currently 14.5%. You may begin booking reservations directly online here <http://ichotelsgroup.com/redirect?path=rates&brandCode=HI&regionCode=1&localeCode=en&GPC=N9B&hotelCode=WASSM&_PMID=99801505> . You may also make reservations by calling (877) 572-6951 and referencing booking code N9B. Credit card information is needed at the time of reservation. Individual cancellation policy is seventy-two hours prior to your date of arrival to avoid a one night's room plus tax cancellation charge on the credit card provided. Please call (877) 572-6951 and reference your confirmation number. Please obtain a cancellation number when cancelling a reservation. The firm deadline date to make a reservation is Monday, December 21, 2015. Reservation requests received after the deadline date will be subject to availability and prevailing rate.
 
If you wish to hold a special meeting during Washington Seminar, please email Lisa Bonderson at lbonderson at cocenter.org just as you have done in past years. She and I will work with the hotel on the assignment of those meeting rooms. To ensure that you get the space you need, please let us know of your meeting space needs by Thursday, December 10, 2015.
 
Lisa and I will always be available to help you with any problems you might experience with this new system of booking of your hotel reservations, but we have worked closely with the hotel staff and they are looking forward to working with each affiliate or group wishing to make reservations.
 
See you in Washington!
 
Diane
