Hotel & Travel

Hotel:

The conference will be held at the Galveston Island Convention Center, 5600 Seawall Blvd. A limited number of rooms are available at a special conference rate of $109 + tax for a single room at the Galveston Island Hilton, 5400 Seawall Blvd. Individuals should make their own room arrangements:

• Hotel reservations should be made using the local number for the Hilton. Ask for the AT&T Center Conference. Do NOT use the 800 number—the national registration system for the Hilton is not able to complete conference registrations at this time.

• Contact the hotel directly at 409-744-5000.

• Online registration is available: www.hilton.com (enter the Group/Convention code: UCT to get the special conference rate)

After October 13, 2007, the conference rate is not guaranteed and reservations will be accepted and confirmed at the standard rate, based on availability.
