speace would be a problem for any organization of this size - especially given the fact we celebrate 100 years of service. brothers that have never attended convention are registered for this one. its a once in a lifetime event.

You only have one additional property? I guess it boggles my mind because we have 17 properties (including the two next to the convention center as HQ hotels) for our convention in Philly. We provide shuttle service for those not in easy walking distance.
But you are right about finding space. In fact we are now limited to about 6 major cities that can accomodate our national conventions. And they all must have major size convention centers in addition to plenty of hotel properties that we can block.
I am not sure what we will do for our 100th, if DC can't accomodate us.
