Hotels

The 8th Annual FIRST Conference will be held at The Westin Hotel in Santa Clara, California, U.S.A. Santa Clara is in the heart of the Northern California's Silicon Valley in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area. The bigger cities of San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose are nearby.

Arrangements have been made for a special room rate for conference attendees. Please, note that there are also a limited number of US Government rate rooms.

Each attendee is responsible for making their own hotel arrangements. It is also *highly* recommended that hotel reservations be made well in advance of the conference since room accommodations in the Bay Area are very limited this time of year. Hotel costs are not included in the conference fee.

single or double -- $135 per night
US Govt rate -- $99 per night LIMITED NUMBER
These rates are good for Thursday night July 25th through the night of August 2, 1996.
