[CALIBK12] [BULK] Library Legislative Day in Sacramento - April 16

Thu Apr 10 12:32:16 PDT 2008

Did I see something on calib about special hotel rates for the night of 
April 15th? I have registered and plan to come up on Amtrak on Tuesday, 
April 15, I have always stayed at the Hyatt, but they are quoting a 
price of $300.00...I have never paid that before...
Can anyone help?

Thanks...

Good morning, Library Advocates!

Today is the last day to register for Library Legislative Day in
Sacramento without a late fee. Register online today, or put your
registration in the mail by the end of the day and save $5. Our passion
and presence has convinced decision makers in the past, and we can do it
again! California's economy will grow and prosper when our state 
provides
a public education system that equals or exceeds what other states give
their students. We know that creative and critical thinkers develop and
thrive with strong school libraries; sixteen state studies have proved 
it!
It's time once again to SPEAK UP!

See you in Sacramento!

Ellie
