NSA Convention Info

[bd3d@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (William Davis )]

Hi to all,

I sent the last of the three registration/application forms out to the 
printer this morning.  Here is the latest update on the NSA Convention, 
from the info provided to me for inclusion on those forms:

--------------------------------SAVE THIS------------------------------

NSA CONVENTION '96
Dates:  August 1-5, 1996
Place: Rochester, NY  
HQ Hotel:  Holiday Inn Genesee Plaza, 120 East Main St., Rochester, NY 
14604.  There is a large block of rooms reserved, but these are 
expected to sell out, so reserve early.  Room rates for this block are 
$82, single or double.
Costs:  Three-day Registration, including admission to the Stereo 
Theater, Workshops, Trade Fair and Exhibits...$20.00 ($30.00 after July 
26, 1996)  
    Awards Banquet, Sat. Night ....$19.00, with choice of Chicken 
Piccata, London Broil or Vegetarian Eggplant Parmesan.
    President's Breakfast, Sun. Morn....$9.75
    Early Bird Admission to the Trade Fair Sat.8:00 AM, (1 hour earlier 
than unlucky general public)...$20.00
    Bus Tour Monday to Letchworth State Park (known in some circles as 
"The Grand Canyon of the East")  Photo Op/Nature Tour....$26.00 (lunch 
not included but there are several options, I'm told.
An important thing for non-NSA members to note is that these prices are 
the same whether you're a member of NSA or not.  Good Deal!

NSA members will be receiving application/registration forms with the 
next Stereo World, which should start arriving around the end of this 
month or so. Any non-members can send a SASE directly to me at:
               NSA '96,  92 Gaywood Lane, Webster NY 14580
and I'll send out a packet.  To those who responded to my earlier post, 
you will be receiving your packets within days.  The first on your 
blocks, just like I promised!

Remember that we would like to pre-register as many as possible, since 
the hassles involved with on-site registration tend to stretch out the 
time factor, creating long lines of irritated stereo buffs who would 
rather be in the air-conditioned theater being transported to far away 
lands through the magic of stereography.  Or something like that.  
Anyway, it works a lot better if you pre-register.

If anyone is interested, I can post the particulars about Trade Show 
Table rentals or Advertising Rates for the Official Program that all 
attendees will receive.

I've probably left something out, so I may be posting again, but this 
pretty well encompasses what I have direct knowledge of regarding the 
Convention.

Regards,
Bill Davis   Webster NY (North shore of the US)
