It may seem like April is a long way away, but to the 2016 District Conference Committee, it is just around the corner.  Our 2016 District Conference will be held in Galveston from April 28-May 1 at the San Luis Hotel, Spa and Conference Center.
 
Now, there are two important points that I must let you know about at this time:  
      1)  The registration fee for the Conference goes up from $195 per person to $205 per person on December 1  So, if you want to save $10, you may either go on to the district web site, www.rotary5890.org and register.
      2)  The room block at the San Luis has been sold out, but there are still plenty of rooms available at the Holiday Inn, which is pretty much on the same site, and at the Hilton, which is by the Convention Center about a block away, where Governor Nick will be having his Governor's Banquet on Saturday night.  A plus about the Holiday Inn and Hilton is that both hotel rates are less that the Conference rate at the San Luis.
 
Every District Conference is unique in its own way, and this Conference will be special also.  The Conference Committee is working very hard to put together a memorable experience for all of us to enjoy, and a program for all of us to learn from and become more active and involved Rotarians.  So, please consider registering for the Conference, and for your hotel rooms, soon, and then you won't have to worry about anything except how much fun you are going to have in Galveston!
 
Thanks,
Bill Haglund, 2016 Conference Chair
