be single registrations. The only
exception to this is if your spouse or significant other is attending. You will
just need to fill their name in the appropriate box. If you are a returning
attendee from last years convention, then your customer information is stored
here. All you need to do is log in to "Your Account" at the top of
this page.

https://reservations.ihotelier.com/crs/g_reservation.cfm?groupID=470925&hotelID=2019
We have made arrangements for our members to be able to stay at the hotel
three days prior as well as three days post convention at the same daily
convention rate. This will work out well for members who are planning that
extended vacation. The room rates are $103 per night (plus tax) double occupancy.
Kids under 17 stay FREE. There will be an additional charge of $20 (plus
tax) if you have an extra person per room, per night. The hotel price is
guaranteed until September 1st, 2010.
Anyone interested in RVing for the convention:
Arrangements have been made with the KOA in Kissimmee (7 miles from the
host hotel). Stay one night get one free, stay two nights and get two free,
stay three nights and get three free, and so on. If you have a KOA Kamping
card you are still entitled to an extra 10% discount. It’s a great
deal, especially for that extended stay to see the local attractions.
Dick & I stayed there last September; we highly recommend this RV Park.
Prices are as follows:
Back-In Sites (34’ max) $58.99 (plus tax) per night
Pull through Sites (73’ long average) $75.99 (plus tax) per night
Call 407-396-2400 for reservations. Just mention that you are with the “FIREFIGHTERS”
