As mentioned, there aren't a lot of places with the facilities to host a general assembly. I got to see Sig Ep's big one in August and it takes a pretty good sized place.

In general, these big places like fraternities since they fill the space in off season. So a national can get a good price. Each place prices things differently, some charge for each ballroom, others throw in a ballroom for each few dozen sleeping rooms that you reserve. Some charge for a banquet hall; others charge per dinner, and give the hall free. But the bottom line is the bottom line and they all seem to price out about the same.

One thing you can do is bunk in at the nearest Motel 6. Unfortunately, all the big hotels have a clause in their contract against mentioning any other hotels in the convention literature. So, brothers, you have to do that on your own. That's why it seems so 'secret' - it's not national, but the hotels making the rules.

Most conventions have a "locals package" - designed for those who live nearby. Sometimes it is couched as "guest of delegate", or similar.

OK, I've got the photo of the GreekChat clan @ the D-Backs game. However, I'm not the greatest tech wizard when it comes to the 'Net. How can I attach a .jpg file so that it'll appear along w/the text? It's asking for a URL...drop me a PM...
