OH Convention in Atlanta

Just wondering where everyone is staying? Are you staying at the Hilton or did you find a good deal at another hotel? Also, are you staying Friday and Saturday night or just Saturday night? I am coming in from Chattanooga, TN and the Hilton cannot come through with my request for a half day rate from the beginning of the convention until my hubby and son could check in, so I am still pricing other hotels. Anyway, just wanted to see what you guys were able to find Also, does everyone have to register at 9am if they have already gotten their ticket confirmation? Do you spend the entire day in the convention or come and go at leisure? It seems most of the beginning day part is more for pre-ops and if that is the case, I could just arrive late morning, but not sure if I have to be there at 9am to register. Any help would be GREAT!!

I'm not sure about coming and going during the event. I know they are going to have a break here and there. I'm staying at the Courtyard on Saturday night. If my husband wasn't working Friday I'd be there then too. Amy
