Re: FIRST Packages for Championships

Your team leader will receive an anouncement from FIRST (which is also probably an E-mail Blast that you will see here on Chief Delphi) regarding the date that the hotel reservations become available. Your team can start doing research right now, looking at all the hotels in Atlanta. Look at their normal prices (to give you an idea of what they cost), their location in regard to the venue and mass transportation. Do they offer continental breakfast? An indoor pool? Are they near Centennial Park (great for burning off energy a the end of the day) or near restaurants, etc. If traveling by Air (I'm assuming you will be), how will you get to the hotel with all your stuff, from the airport? Other amenities that might be important to you? Determine how many rooms you will need to reserve. Then have the team (or the travel committee) narrow your selections down. That way when THS anounces the hotels that are being offered, you will know what your top selections are. The popular hotels tend to get completely booked within hours of the time you can start making reservations. Assign someone with computer access the job of hopping online to make your reservations as soon as it opens, if you decide to use one of the hotels THS offers.
