FGS 2012 Conference Hotel

The host hotel for the Birmingham conference is the Sheraton Birmingham Hotel. The main conference committee has already stayed at the hotel and pronounce it ready for the throngs of genealogists!

What are the neat things about this hotel for the 2012 FGS/AGS conference? It’s difficult to narrow all of them down to a few, but here goes:
1.    Newly renovated ($21 million cost) hotel with many amenities.
2.    FGS has arranged for complimentary wireless high speed Internet access in guest rooms!
3.    Pool and fitness center for keeping in shape.
4.    Redecorated guest rooms with flat screen TVs and Sheraton Sweet Sleeper™ Bed, “featuring a decadent duvet and pillow top mattress.”
5.    It’s conveniently connected to the Birmingham/Jefferson Convention Complex by a covered skyway.
6.    Conference luncheons will take place in the hotel.
7.    We have really good rates of $138.00 for single or double occupancy, $148.00 for triple, and $158.00 for quad occupancy. As usual, these are the prices without taxes added.
  • These prices are good as early as arrivals on Wednesday, August 22 and departures as late as Wednesday, September 5th. That gives you time for research and sightseeing.
