[GNC] More News Re: Accomodations and Travel

5/12

Hi Owen,

Thanks for the information.

I'm very much looking forward to attending the convention. One of my
personal goals is to spend more time getting to know all of you.

Owen has come up with a lot of options. I am flexible. When are people
planning to go and attend the convention? My last day of work is Tuesday,
6/22 around 2:30 P.M.

Marquette University looks inexpensive and is within easy walking distance.

HOWEVER, I'M FLEXIBLE!! When are people planning to arrive and depart? Where
do people want to stay?
