information with regards to some non-Rosen properties in <BR>Orlando. Please
share this with your affiliates.<BR><BR>We've arranged for an NFB hotel block at
the Doubletree by Hilton <BR>Orlando at Seaworld! The Doubletree is less than a
mile from the Rosen <BR>Centre and has amenities such as flat-screen televisions
and microwaves <BR>in the rooms, a swimming pool, and several on-property
restaurants. To <BR>make a reservation, call 800-327-0363 and ask for group code
NFB. <BR>Depending on your schedule, room rates will be more expensive on
<BR>certain days. Rates are $89 for the nights of July 7-9. Rates are
<BR>$159/night for July 3-6 and $179/night for July 10-11.<BR><BR>Additional
rooms may be found at a less expensive rate at the Clarion <BR>or the Red Roof
Inn, although the details won't be finalized in their <BR>reservation system
until late on Thursday, May 28. You may call to book <BR>a room at the Clarion
(800-826-4847) with a king or two queen beds for <BR>$110/night. We also have a
block of rooms at the Red Roof Inn <BR>(407-352-1507 option 4) with a king or
two full beds at the rate of <BR>$99/night. Both the Clarion and the Red Roof
Inn offer a swimming pool, <BR>free Wi-Fi, and a microwave. (Some rooms may have
a refrigerator.) Both <BR>properties are a short walk from the Rosen Centre
entrance.<BR><BR>See you in Florida!<BR><BR>Mark A. Riccobono,

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