WORD TO THE WISE: Lodging in the Kanab/Fredonia area will be in high demand during the conference, because of the conference and because a movie company filming nearby at that time will need rooms. OSTA has guaranteed a block of rooms at Parry Lodge, at a discounted rate; reservations must be made by April 1st. The number of guaranteed rooms is not enough to accommodate all of OSTA’s needs; we arranged the same rate at Rodeway Inn, but have not guaranteed a block of rooms. Bottom Line: Make reservations early!

NOTES ABOUT ALTERNATIVE EVENTS: 1) Because the Kanab/Fredonia area is prime ‘vacation country’, OSTA is highlighting the availability of the following activities as a courtesy for attendees who may want to ‘come early or stay late’ for the conference, and for persons who travel with an OSTA member but do not plan to attend certain conference events. 2) The availability of events varies somewhat from day to day; see ‘Adventure Connections’ on the following pages. Unless otherwise noted, the events are also available in the days and weeks preceding and following the conference. 3) OSTA has arranged for special rates and times for some of the events listed below; however, the association bears no responsibility for the events nor for arrangements, which must be made directly with event sponsors (see Pgs.9-11 below).
