IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT HOTEL RESERVATIONS: If you are making a hotel reservation outside of LOC’s negotiated room block dates of October 11-14, you must call the hotel directly to make a reservation. You may reserve more than one room; however, all hotel rooms must have a unique reservation name that matches those on the conference registration list. We will be working with the hotel to verify this each day, and reservations for persons not yet registered for the conference or multiple reservations held under the same name will be dropped.
