<VV> Convention--Hotel

[Harry Jensen, CORSA Executive Secretary]

Hi Mark--

[Larry Claypool added to the distribution.]

I agree. Maps and directions need to be better. When we did conventions in 
Chicago, we always put **everything** into the program book: maps and 
directions to off site activities, churches, hospitals, etc. That way, 
everyone who registers should have access to that information. We printed 
extra copies of the program book from 2001 and routinely give it out to 
convention organizers as an example of what a **good** program book should 
contain.

But understand that there are an enormous amount of details in planning a 
convention, so it is easy for some details to fall through the cracks. It 
is difficult to understand how many details are involved, until you are 
involved in the planning of a convention...
