If making hotel reservations by phone, please identify yourself as a member of NCCUSL to obtain the special rate. It is important that our office receive a copy of all drafts and other materials to be discussed at the meeting at least three weeks in advance to allow us time to duplicate and mail the information to each member of the committee for review in advance of the meeting.

If your committee should adjourn by Saturday night, please note you will only be allowed to leave Saturday night if it will save the Conference money, otherwise you must stay over Saturday night.
