DA: Here is part of the original announcement from Joanne,
announcing these rooms:<br><br>
<br><br>
</font><pre>Joanne Wilson tells us:
Rooms are now also available in the Hilton Garden Inn, about seven
blocks north of the Renaissance Center, at 351 Gratiot Avenue,
Detroit, Michigan 48226. The above convention rates apply, with a
nonrefundable deposit of $60.00 at booking and a five-night minimum
stay for arrivals beginning Thursday, July 2, and departures no later
than Friday, July 10. Please note this means that by making a
reservation there you are obligated to pay for the full five nights
at convention rates even if you stay fewer than five nights. You may
make reservations through Hilton's reservation system at
1-866-534-5356 through Friday, June 12. Be sure to tell the agent
you are attending the National Federation of the Blind
convention. These rooms will go quickly; therefore, you should call
right away to ensure having a reservation.
