For everyone who reserves at least 1 room for one night at the JW Marriott Hotel, SABR is offering one chance at a random drawing for one free hotel night.

SABR staff will review the reservation list provided by the hotel on Thursday night and conduct a random drawing. The winner will be posted on the convention bulletin board and the hotel will be told to put one night of the winner’s hotel stay on the SABR Master account.

To make your hotel reservation, see: http://convention.sabr.org/index.php/plan-your-trip/hotel.

We've been mentioning some of the great sights to see when you're not taking in the convention -- or things for your family to enjoy while you're eating, sleeping and breathing baseball. Well, the Bob Davids chapter is blessed some very qualified tour guides. They have offered their services to those attending SABR 39. Please contact them directly to arrange personal or group tours. Their rates are very reasonable and they know the area and its history like few other people. Several chapter members (longtime residents of the area) have taken a sample walking tour and learned fascinating things about the nation’s capital only a few steps from the front door of the JW Marriott hotel.
