Thank you all for your help. However, I have just phoned them, and a very helpful lady has got me booked in  now. As we are staying a couple of extra nights, she has fixed it so we can stay in the same room, - not have to move to another one, which is good.

Now, to get the air fares booked, - and there is a Special on, I think that runs out tomorrow, - and which might save us about $400 each!  So I was anxious to get the Hotel booked first.  Must now get the car out and go to our Travel agent and get her to book our flights!!

Keep in mind you can also use the IOLI 2018 Convention Attendees email list to ask this kind of question. IOLI Convention Committee and the local convention committee both have representatives on that email list. To join the list, you need to request to be added--you should have received instructions in your acknowledgement email for your registration.

Thanks Sally for helping Liz! I’m on my iPad so don’t have all my contact info handy. (Not to mention semi brain dead tonight.)

I hope the resolve your hotel issue soon! I am hoping to try my hand at designing Chantilly with Ulrike. But first I need to refresh my skills by finishing my class project from last year. Looking forward to seeing you both!

I forwarded the message to the convention committee.  Amy Groff replied that they will check on the reservation tomorrow.  Her email address is a long one:  2018convlocaladmin1@internationalorganizationoflace.org

I'll see you in July.

Thank you for that quick reply, Anita.  We are looking forward to the trip - if we can get this reservation fixed - quickly, as the airline has a Special that ends on Tuesday - and we are a day ahead of you, over there!!!!

Yes, Alex will be tagging along!!  :)  (or :( !!)  I am hoping for a tatting class. What class are you going to do (hopefully!) ?

Hi Liz! So happy to hear you will be in San Antonio this summer!  There is a very helpful lady at the hotel handling the IOLi reservations but I don’t recall her name right now. She helped me fix up my reservation back when I thought the code was IOLi ( which apparently was wrong.)  Being in Australia it isn’t as easy for you to simply phone the hotel. But if you don’t hear back from your email, look on the IOLI webpage  under Officiers and contact the Convention Chair Lisa Morey and she should be able to tell you who to email or maybe someone can call for you.  It might also be that the woman at the hotel doesn’t work on the weekends so maybe you will hear on Monday.

Looking forward to seeing you again in July! And hopefully Alex too!

I emailed the El Tropicano Hotel for a Reservation, for IOLI, but have not had confirmation yet.

So I went to the web site, and the booking, and filled in the dates we want to be there, and put IOL in the Code place, - then what? - where do you Click to send the information?  I could not find anywhere . I am not very computer Lierate, I know, - but usually there is a 'button'to click on to send in the info.

(I know I wear glasses - " just for show, I think some days, not for looking though! - as I often say to people in the supermarket when I am looking for something!!! :)

So now I better wait, I suppose, to see if my email (which I red flagged) gets an answer., as we are getting there early and leaving a day or so late.

RE: IOLI Classes 2018

If you check the website now, the class information is not there.  The changes for this year are in progress and will should be up after Jan. 1.  Feb. 15 is still the start date for entries.  Entries can be submitted anytime, but anything received prior to Feb. 15 will be postmarked as Feb. 15 for class assignments.
