I sent what I found for Phoenix to the board email address just now for cost comparisons. I was as far as talking with the Phoenix Convention Center and the Visit Phoenix for area information before missing the deadline. I found that this was a short lead time for the details involved and finding a large enough venue for the expected size of the 2014 event.
The moral of the story is that I applaud the work Bonnie must have put in to make the last event such a success!
