These hotels have been contracted to provide the best rates and services to NAMB Convention attendees. In order to guarantee these locations and room nights, NAMB has contractual obligations at each hotel. If you make reservations outside of the NAMB block, NAMB falls short of its obligations and is responsible for paying lost income to the hotel, which in turn means less activities and benefits for NAMB members. RESERVATION DEADLINEReservations must be made online, by phone, by fax or by mail must be made by May 25, 2007 in order to guarantee the convention rates.
