For those going to the genealogy conference in Salt Lake on April 10-13: Please call the Salt Lake Plaza Hotel at (800) 366-3684 and tell them you are with the Azores Genealogy Group to book your room. Please do this soon.
The Plaza is in the business to sell as many rooms as possible. Right now, they can add more rooms to our room count if needed. After March 10th, any rooms not booked by us will be available for the general public to book. Remember, if you are coming to the conference and have some other non-Portuguese researchers coming along as friends, they can book a room at our rate by mentioning the Azores Conference. They just aren't attending our lectures. I don't pay for the lecture room if 20 rooms are booked by the Azores Conference. Example: John and Mary Smith are coming to the Azores Conference to research their Portuguese lines. They told Bob and Betty Boop, who have really been wanting to go to Salt Lake, but they will be researching the Boops in Cartoononia. The Smiths book one of the Azores hotel rooms and so do the Boops. Two more rooms sold. But the Boops don't come to the conference because Rosemarie, João, nor I research the imaginary land of Cartoononia. Thanks!
