I've been pretty lucky with the roommate assignments. Once she didn't show and another she switched to be with a friend. So those times I had a private room at no extra charge! At convention last year I was paired up with someone from a similar chapter who I had talked to in the past, so it was very nice to get to know her better. I think they try and match roommates up who are close in age and other factors to eliminate any potential clashing.

We budgeted for two advisors to attend since Callaway is driving distance, so we'll just request to be together. Sally at EO always does such a fabulous job of coordinating all those details!!

Another note - when you register, be sure and note any dietary restrictions or even preferences. While I am not allergic to seafood, I ABHOR it. In Phoenix I didn't list that and subsequently went hungry for the meals that had only seafood available (though the bartender did rustle up some peanut butter and jelly for me once). Specifically mention any foods you don't eat (pork, etc.) or dairy restrictions.
