[Nfbnet-members-list] Hotel alternatives for NFB National Convention

[President, National Federation of the Blind via State-affiliate-leadership-list]

Dear Colleagues,

We have some information with regards to some non-Rosen properties in 
Orlando. Please share this with your affiliates.

We've arranged for an NFB hotel block at the Doubletree by Hilton 
Orlando at Seaworld! The Doubletree is less than a mile from the 
Rosen Centre and has amenities such as flat-screen televisions and 
microwaves in the rooms, a swimming pool, and several on-property 
restaurants. To make a reservation, call 800-327-0363 and ask for 
group code NFB. Depending on your schedule, room rates will be more 
expensive on certain days. Rates are $89 for the nights of July 7-9. 
Rates are $159/night for July 3-6 and $179/night for July 10-11.

Additional rooms may be found at a less expensive rate at the Clarion 
or the Red Roof Inn, although the details won't be finalized in their 
reservation system until late on Thursday, May 28. You may call to 
book a room at the Clarion (800-826-4847) with a king or two queen 
beds for $110/night. We also have a block of rooms at the Red Roof 
Inn (407-352-1507 option 4) with a king or two full beds at the rate 
of $99/night. Both the Clarion and the Red Roof Inn offer a swimming 
pool, free Wi-Fi, and a microwave. (Some rooms may have a 
refrigerator.) Both properties are a short walk from the Rosen Centre entrance.

See you in Florida!

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the 
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise 
the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create 
obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life 
you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
