<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Hello State Travel Planners.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">There are some changes coming to the WSCA Lodging Searchable Database. In a couple of weeks, the current database will be replaced by the new online booking tool at
<a href="http://www.wscatravel.com">www.wscatravel.com</a> The new tool will provide real time searching, availability and pricing information. Everyone who uses the tool will need to create an account. The account is free. To create an account,
log on to <a href="http://www.wscatravel.com">www.wscatravel.com</a> and request a log in. You will need to send an email from your work account to verify that you are a government employee before the account is created. Once you are confirmed, log in
information will be sent to you so you can log in and search and book for rooms. The reason for the account and email verification is to ensure the general public is not accessing the discounted rates.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Hotel bookings will be free on the new site.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Please take a moment now to become familiar with the new tool. I will send out an email when the existing searchable database is removed. I will also have the wscalodging.org web address
be redirected to the new tool at that time. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
