After a great conference in Monterey with more than 800
attendees, it’s time to start planning for our 66th Annual
Institute. It’s been 56 years since we last held an annual
institute in Salt Lake, and the city is abuzz with bars,
restaurants, and energy! Now is the time to book your hotel
room and take advantage of the Foundation’s discounted rates at
Grand America, a five-star property where all sessions will
take place. For the more value conscious, Little America right
across the street has charm all its own.
Rooms
fill up fast, and for a limited time (until they sell
out), you can book an Executive Suite for the same
price as a Premiere Room! Choose from either Grand
America ($261/night) or Little America ($166/night).Download the two-page flyer for
complete information.
