Hi All.
Just a quick message to say that the hotel contracts have been signed with the ALT Hotel and the Fort Garry, though I am still awaiting a countersigned copy from the latter.
In the end, I settled on charging 17 rooms at the ALT Hotel on a Master Account, meaning the conference will be paying for these rooms. This number accounts for the graduate students (10), post-docs (5), and two precariously employed participants. All of the other rooms are reserved for us but the conference-goers will be responsible for all the costs. This seemed a good compromise between the Conference Committee's commitment to assisting participants and certain fiscal realities. Should we eventually find ourselves awash with money we can always step in to pay for others. But for now things are neatly contained.
Conference participants will need to reference certain codes when booking in order to get the conference rate. They are as follows:
ALT Hotel: Group Code: 1919WGSCC (when booking online); 1919 WGSCC Organizing Committee - 5749794 (when booking by phone).
Fort Garry: Group Code: 1136BD.
Best,
Paul
