<VV> 2013 CORSA CONVENTION

[Tom Berg]

Folks,
 
You can still book into the Sheraton Four Points for as little as $129 per night (non-refundable) or $169  (refundable) on Expedia.com. I think the Four Points offers shuttle service from/to the K-zoo airport, which is worth some money if you're flying in and aren't renting a car. 
 
There are several other hotels close to the convention area. Using Expedia, I just booked into the Fairfield Inn for $94 plus tax (more on Friday night); the Fairfield is about a quarter-mile from the Four Points. 
 
Hotwire.com can get you a cheap room, but you don't know the names until you book. And the ones it listed were more than 7 miles from the convention area.

Kalamazoo International Airport is about 10-15 minutes away from the host hotel.

If true, we may need a bigger venue. I have already made my reservation to stay at the host hotel but haven't yet registered with Corsa. Timothy Shortle in Durango Colorado
