please call them and make sure they have the
Booking Group/Convention Code: MER
There is a certain amount of rooms we need to reserve in order for our no advance purchase and fully refundable rate to apply.
MEBO's Annual Meetup at Washington DC on April 9th and 10th is for the whole community, even though the webpage created by Embassy Suites has called it “MEBO Research Board of Directors Meeting.” I am not certain why they chose to call it that. Perhaps it’s because since Glenna, who found the site for us and visited it to make sure it suits our needs, is the Director of Public Relations for MEBO, and then I negotiated the rates and signed the contract with Embassy Suites, they assumed that this would be the appropriate name. However, the hotel has set aside suites for all members, not just members of the Board of Directors.
Everyone is invited, and encouraged to make reservations as soon as possible guaranteeing the low rate with a credit card, even though funds will not be held in your card account, and charges won’t be made until checkout at the end of the meetup.
I hope you enjoy this slide show of the sights I hope we can visit, and one of our members has volunteered to try to set up a private tour of the White House for us on Saturday before our conference meeting. More information on these arrangements will be forthcoming as they are finalized.
I look forward to sharing these very memorable experiences with as many people from our international community as possible. See you there!
