These are always a fun time and very informative. Very good for meeting dispatchers from all over the industry also and making contacts. I will definitely be attending this year.

$60/night rooms at Harrah's is a pretty good deal. It's a nice property.

I've stayed at Harrah's--nice place.
So let me get this straight, ADF wants us to go to Sin City to talk about dispatching while engaging in cocktails, gambling, and possible other adult entertainment? I'm in.

How much?

How much?

If you are an ADF member, the event itself is free. Rooms at Harrah's are $60/night. You are free to find accomodation elsewhere if you wish, but that is a pretty good deal. To become an ADF member, dues are $30/year and it's money well spent in my opinion. www.dispatcher.org for more information.

Manniax, why is that? I thought about becoming a member.

Why is it money well spent? In short, because they do a good job of giving our profession's interests an actual voice that lawmakers and others listen to. To clarify any misunderstandings - I *highly recommend* anyone who is a dispatcher become a member of the ADF. I am fortunate in that my union pays my annual membership fee, but even if they didn't, I would still be a member.

30 bucks for a three day conference? Networking alone is worth it. I'm in.

I think this should be the official commercial for the Symposium this year, even though we're not staying there.

I am going and booked my room at Harrah's at the ADF rate. It's a very good deal, although if you're in a bargain hunting mode there probably are cheaper rooms to be found at off-Strip properties....just would be slightly less convenient to the symposium.

Anyone else in town yet? I got in last night. Looking forward to seeing any fellow JCers that make it!

 

[Aeroscout840]

In town tomorrow morning. I'll drop you a line when I get in!
