>Rosen Centre and has amenities such as flat-screen televisions and 
>microwaves in the rooms, a swimming pool, and several on-property 
>restaurants. To make a reservation, call 800-327-0363 and ask for

>expensive on certain days. Rates are $89 for the nights of July 7-9. 
>Rates are $159/night for July 3-6 and $179/night for July 10-11.

>Additional rooms may be found at a less expensive rate at the 
>Clarion or the Red Roof Inn, although the details won't be finalized 
>in their reservation system until late on Thursday, May 28. You may 
>call to book a room at the Clarion (800-826-4847) with a king or two 
>queen beds for $110/night. We also have a block of rooms at the Red 
>Roof Inn (407-352-1507 option 4) with a king or two full beds at the

>The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the 
>characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise 
>the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create 
>obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life 
>you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
