Greetings everyone! I just spoke with Susan from the Pierre Convention and Visitors Bureau. Registration for the Annual Meeting is down, and there is a pernicious rumor that there is no hotel space available. THIS IS NOT TRUE! Please tell everyone you come in contact with that there are plenty of great rooms available in Pierre, at a variety of price ranges. The Ramkota is full to my knowledge, but there are lots of other hotels within easy walking distance. Pass it on, and refer anyone with questions to the CVB at 1-800-962-2034. They can help with rooms and registration.

Hope to see you in Pierre!
