RE: SEPTEMBER COMMITTEE MEETING SCHEDULE

NW., just above L Street.
The schedule is as follows:

at F Street, NW)
Wednesday, September 11

12:30 p.m. Joint luncheon
2:00 Direct Marketing Committee meeting
Agendas will be mailed to committee members in the near future.
For your convenience, we have attached a list of nearby hotels.
We have also reserved a block of rooms at the Mayflower Hotel
(phone 202/347-3000) at a special rate of $120.00 for a single
and $180.00 for a double per night. Please make your own
reservations, and mention the Institute to obtain the special
rate.
As has been our practice in the past, we are arranging optional
dinners on the evenings before each day of meetings.
Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, this year we are
reluctantly forced to require participants to cover the costs of
these dinners. It seems to us that the most efficient way to
implement this new policy is by charging dinner participants a
"dinner registration fee" of $40 per person for each dinner
attended (the actual cost will be higher, but we will cover the
difference). This fee should be sent to us in advance along with
the attached meeting response form, although you can pay later if
you decide to attend at the last minute.
Please note that there continues to be no fee involved in
attending the committee meetings or the joint committee lunches.
To help us in planning, please return the attached form to me by
mail no later than Friday, September 6.
Best regards,
L. Erick Kanter
Vice President-

Marketing
P.S You may also want to put the dates of our joint winter
committee meetings on your calendar. They will be held at
the Disney Yacht Club near Orlando, from Wednesday, January
22 through Friday, January 24. The times for each meeting
have not yet been worked out, but we will notify you of the
specific schedule as soon as possible. We have reserved a
block of rooms at the Disney Yacht Club at a daily rate of
$130.00 (double or single). Please make your own hotel
reservations by calling the hotel at 407/934-7639.
