The Foundation dinner will have a costume theme, a parade of costumes and usually a contest for best costumes. Feast of Roses is formal.. cocktail dresses are appropriate that night. You will get a more complete Convention packet with a full schedule after you register. They include information about "What to Wear".
I do think you'd miss out a little if you didn't stay in the hotel. We are "programmed" pretty much from 8:00 or 8:30 am until 10:00 or 10:30 pm with breaks long enough to dress for dinner, etc. You may feel rushed for time if you have to leave the hotel, get back to yours, get dressed and head back again.
Take note too.. Early Bird Registration saves you $50!
Many of the Michigan Alpha Gams are thinking about taking the Amtrak train. 4 hour train ride versus driving plus parking expenses versus dealing with airport. The train takes you to downtown and it's easy to catch a cab to the hotel from there! Plus you can sleep on the way back (you'll be tired!). Can you imagine a whole train car of Alpha Gams???
