If you would like to extend your stay in Asheville, we recommend that you book your accommodations as soon as possible! You may be able to reserve additional nights at the conference hotel at the regular rate, or there are many other options in town (including VRBO and AirBnB) but autumn is a peak visiting time to the area and hotels will fill up fast. FAQ Attire: Business casual attire is appropriate throughout the conference. On Friday of the conference, we encourage you to wear your consortium gear if you have it! Meals: The welcome reception Wednesday night (being held at the Doubletree Hotel) will offer heavy hors d’oeuvres which likely will be sufficient for most; if you wish additional food that night, this will be on your own. Breakfast and lunch, along with coffee breaks and snacks will be provided at the Doubletree Hotel on Thursday. Dinner is on your own Thursday night. You are encouraged to make reservations early for a restaurant in Asheville. Breakfast and lunch will be provided Friday at the Doubletree Hotel. |
