Hotel Information and Special Rate | Discussion Board
The conference will take place in the beautiful DeSoto hotel in charming downtown Savannah, Georgia. The South Central Renaissance Conference is obligated to pay for a certain number of hotel rooms, through its conference participants, so please try to take advantage of the discounted room rate available through this link. We recognize that some participants might want to save on costs by sharing a room at the conference hotel; to facilitate finding someone with whom to share a room, you can use this link to confer with participants about accommodations, rides (or introduce a new topic), restaurants, and more. Please approach the possibility of sharing a room or ride with the necessary caution.
