2015 Surratt Conference

[L Verge]

I was on the phone with the reservations manager at Colony South Hotel and Conference Center at 9 am this morning, and she sends her apologies for any confusion with her staff. The hotel went under new management about a year-and-a-half ago, and their telephone system became unfriendly and automated recently. I was told that, especially during the weekends, callers who push button #2 for reservations as instructed may end up talking with Central Reservations somewhere in the hinterland.

Tom - I waited while she assured me that she had changed your reservation to the conference rates. I would still double-check just to back it up. For all others needing to make reservations: THE CUT-OFF DATE FOR THOSE SPECIAL RATES IS FEBRUARY 18. Please call Felicia Johnson directly at 301-877-4816 to assure a correct booking. If you experience any problems at any time from now through the conference, please let me know.
