Final Thoughts
Written by John Packard
A note to those of you who are registered for our 6th Steel Summit Conference but have yet to make room reservations. The room block at the Marriott Gateway Hotel (our host hotel) is sold out. The hotel may have a few rooms left but they will most likely be at the full rack rate. We have a room block at the SpringHill Suites Gateway Hotel which is located across the street from the Marriott and the convention center. As of Friday there were 23 rooms left in our block at the SpringHill Suites at $134 per night.
There are now 28 days left (4 weeks) until the start of the conference which will be on Monday, August 29th. On that Monday registration will be held at the Atlanta Airport Marriott Gateway Hotel lobby beginning at 2:30 PM ET. At 3:30 PM, in the Marriott Hotel, we will have our “Pre-Summit” program with trade attorney Lewis Leibowitz. That program will last until 5 PM. From 5 PM until ? we are encouraging those in the two hotels (Marriott and SpringHill Suites) that are attending our conference to meet in the lobby lounge, have a drink courtesy of Tennessee Steel Haulers (coupon will be in your registration package) and spend some time networking with SMU people, our speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and attendees.
