[nabs-l] Cost of Convention?

[David Andrews]

Well, your costs will depend in part on whether 
or not you share a hotel room, how much you spend 
on food etc.  The hotel rates and convention 
registration are published. If you share a room, 
for example, you can cut the hotel cost in 
half.  Food at convention hotels tends to be 
expensive, but there are ways to reduce this 
cost, if you need to do so.  It also depends on 
how many days you stay.  So you could spend 
anywhere from say $500 to $2000 or more.  There is also airfare of course.
