SSSers! Many of our colleagues will feel the impact of Hurricane Florence. We hope that everyone can stay safe and that the damage is as minimal as possible.
The Sheraton did inform us late last week that they had oversold 50 rooms for the night of the 6th. 50 people will have new accommodations for that night only. We negotiated that that might be free, that all subsequent night for those individuals be at a reduced rate,
