95 Days until the SI 2011 Convention!

 95 days until Convention, 11 days until the early bird rate closes. It’s time to register!


Yvonne Machuk, Chair of the Convention Committee, reported back to us about her recent visit to

Montreal
:

We are in the final phase of convention preparation and are very excited about this opportunity to host Soroptimists from all over the world.

Accommodation:

Please consider staying at one of the Convention hotels as these are the people working with us to provide an excellent Convention experience. More information can be found here. There are several other large events taking place in

Montreal
at the same time and so we have been advised that hotel rates will be at a premium. The prices negotiated for the SI Convention cannot change so we urge you to consider staying at one of our contracted hotels.

The Intercontinental is across the street from the Convention Centre. The Delta is 10 minutes walk away and the Marriott and the Sheraton are only 15 minutes walk. To walk from the Marriott to the Sheraton is only 10 minutes so it will be easy to catch up with friends staying at the other hotel.

Social Events:

There are plenty of social events planned for Convention! The Friendship Evening on Sunday, July 10th will include opening ceremonies and a reception. The food will feature specialities from coast to coast in

Canada
and the entertainment will feature Canadian artists. It promises to be an excellent evening and the perfect way to launch the 2011 Convention experience!  
 
The Chatline lunch (July 11th) and Open Heart Open Door lunch (July 12th) will be at the Intercontinental Hotel. The Convention Banquet will be on July 13th.   

“I have attended two international conventions – Sydney and Glasgow. What a tremendous experience they were! I enjoyed meeting and exchanging ideas with other Soroptimists. If you have never attended an International Convention it is an experience you don’t want to miss. It’s a great opportunity to get to know other Soroptimists from around the world. I hope to see you in

Montreal
.”

Chair, Local Committee
