<p class="MsoNormal">ILAGO isn't planning to block rooms; they haven't done it in the past. (According to Pam Kessinger.) I think they will let members know that rooms may be at a premium due to the track and field championships. There are lots of hotels;
I selected three that were nearest LCC and seemed likely to set reasonable block rates.

because the hotel was a block from the where the summit was held. But that won’t be the case this year. I’m wondering if we could just list the hotel options and let folks book what they want? I’m also wondering if there is some sort of widget or comment board
we could add so people could potentially roommate up with others attending the summit?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
