Sorry to crash, but...
I couldn't help but notice a lot of repeat locations (and hotels). Is this due to capacity/number of attendees? If so, how many people usually attend your conventions?

Pardon my crash also, but didn't someone here on GC once mention Orlando-area convention sites purposefully required large convention groups to sign-up for three conventions over the course of ten years? Am I recalling a KD mentioned that requirement?

Yikes. I can imagine there are only so many places that can hold this many people (in one room/space). I just attended my sorority's convention and we had between 400-500 people. I can't imagine there being twice as many people, plus some.

I'd like more info on this if true. We held our convention in Orlando in 2006 and this location has been talked about for future conventions. Is this a new thing and/or only required for certain convention sites?

Chi Omega has been using Marriott properties because Alice Marriott, the wife of the company founder, was a Chi O.

It's true the Marriott women are/were Chi Omegas, but that is just a fun fact and not the *reason* we use Marriott properties.
