ACB National Convention in Louisville, Kentucky |
|||||||||||||||||||||
|
The first tours will be on Friday, July 4. We are returning to the Galt House, located on the banks of the Ohio River and site of the 1980 and 2000 ACB conventions. Rates are $85 single/double for rooms on the west side, and $105 single/double for suites (one bedroom with a small parlor) on the east side. Add $10 for each additional person in a room (limit four people to a room); rates do not include tax. You may now make individual reservations, but we ask that you only reserve a room IF you truly have plans to attend. The practice of reserving rooms just in case you decide to spend a week with ACB causes problems such as those experienced by many of you in obtaining rooms in Jacksonville and Minneapolis, and can result in unnecessary costs to both you and ACB. To make individual reservations at the Galt House, call 502-589-5200. To begin planning for convention events or reserve meeting rooms, please contact Carla Ruschival by phone at 502-897-1472 or by e-mail at adamcarla@bellsouth.net. |
