All The Host Hotel for LDRS 2004 has been chosen. It is The RIT Inn & Conference Center ( the former Marriot Thruway) located at 5257 W. Henrietta Road (US RT.
15), Rochester NY. We have reserved 200 rooms from Monday, June 29th through Wednesday, July 7th. You can book any combination of these dates. The rooms are $80 plus tax, per night ($30 off the regular rate). The LDRS Banquet will also be held there. The hotel can be seen from Interstate 90 and is right off Exit 46. It's also about 20 minutes from the field. Within a mile of the hotel are over 30 restaurants, 2 shopping malls and 18 movie screens (just in case someone wants to do something other than rockets?:-). My suggestion would be to book early! There is a lot going on in the area, for the 4th. of July Weekend and the 3000+ rooms that are available, go quickly! Once the 200 rooms are booked, we'll TRY to get more. The possibility of doing so goes down dramatically, the closer we get to July, however. It's also possible to to get the remaining 100 rooms at the RIT Inn, IF, the first 200 go quickly:-). So...... If you plan on coming to LDRS 2004 AND you want to stay fairly close to the field......BOOK EARLY:-)! The phone number for the RIT Inn is 585-359-1800. You must mention either Buffalo Rocket Society, Inc. or LDRS 2004 to get the special rates. More info will be available on the LDRS website, which should be up in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to seeing ALL of you, there!Lloyd Wood LDRS Launch Director/RSO BRS Secretary Level lll
