Understand if you do use off campus housing that there is a minimum I
believe $12.78 parking fee per day and the cost of renting the car. Or the
cost of a taxi. It is likely still less than the $229, but just wanted to
make sure others knew if they considered this.

Subject: Re: For those interested in sharing hotel costs (sharing a room) at
ARMA International Conference in Orlando
"Personally, I'm looking for someone to share hotel (share a room) costs
with at the upcoming ARMA International conference. Others of you may also
have interest in doing this to assure you can attend the conference at all.
I'd like to find someone to share room costs with so I can go and also help
anyone else who might be in the same financial situation. The early
registration deadline is within a few days of ending, even with the
extension, so I wanted to address as quickly as possible."
Tom raises an interesting point. I know many organizations are facing tough
economic times and there is a need to justify attending a conference of any
kind. Mine is no different and I had to justify the cost of attending the
ARMA conference this year in Orlando. Sharing expenses such as rooms or
rental cars is an excellent way to do that.
While I understand the convenience of having the hotel and conference all in
one facility, it was hard for me to justify $229 per night for a room,
regardless of the all-in-one factor. Another option for people aside from
room sharing might be to stay at a hotel a few miles from the conference
facilities. I know I am at a rate of $90 per night. The room savings alone
helped to make my case to attend. Just a thought.
Thanks, Steve
