Department Convention Reservation Issues

It has been reported that some members are having issues making their reservations for the Department Convention and obtaining the group rate. Today, I called the hotel to address the problem. Here is what we determined. When you call the hotel number (315) 446 – 3200, there is an automated menu which prompts you to press 1 for reservations, and that, we believe was the issue. By pressing option 1, it connects you to a reservation call center elsewhere in the country, which is not aware of the the group rate/block that has been arranged. The solution is simple, when calling the aforementioned phone number, press 0, this will bring you to the front desk at the hotel and you can make your reservation with the group rate. You can also book your reservation online using this link: https://bit.ly/2YFwqp7.

Remember your reservations must be made by 1 September 2020 to get the group rate of $101.00 per night.
