When Should I Arrive?
All participants should plan to arrive no later than 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, July 7. This should allow you enough time to pick up the needed information at the registration table, check into your hotel room, change (if necessary), and be on time to the first Convention Business session at 3 p.m.
Hotel check-in is 3 p.m. and checkout is 11 a.m. Dinner and welcome event is at 7 p.m. on Thursday evening, but we are offering Pre-Conference programming starting at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 6th, so please plan accordingly if you are interested!
How Do I Get a Hotel Room?
HQ will take care of room assignments for all delegates. Each registered delegate gets three nights of shared room and registration fees paid. The registration process will allow you to request a preferred roommate or choose to pay for a single room upgrade, if you are attending with a spouse or family. In addition, the hotel will allow up four students to a room, so if you have additional attendees from your chapter, they can stay in your paid delegate room for no additional cost.
HQ also will make reservations for National Board members and special guests. All other attendees can reserve a room at our guaranteed group rate by using the link below. Our Triangle group rate of $139 per night (plus tax and fees) is offered three days before and three days after our event, in case you want to extend your Orlando visit. This rate includes a waiver of the usual resort fee and free self-parking for the dates of Convention (July 7-10 only).

Traveling to Orlando & the Rosen Plaza
The Orlando International Airport (MCO) is very busy in summer with family travel to the amusement parks, so we encourage you to plan and purchase your flights as early as possible. Because of Orlando’s popularity, there are reasonable flights to Orlando on all major and economy carriers from almost every major metropolitan area at all hours of the day and night.
The Rosen Plaza hotel is about 10 miles (15 minutes from the airport). Lyft and Uber average $25-$30 one-way, taxis are about $45, and there are shared airport shuttles that run about the same as Uber/Lyft, but may stop at several hotels along the way. The airport has most major rental car companies, but summer is the high season for rentals, so shop and reserve early. Once at the hotel, there is a very inexpensive trolley service for access to almost any venue along International Boulevard.
What Does the Agenda Look Like?
From reunions to Ritual, the 2022 Convention has it all. We are working on a detailed program book that will be available for download shortly. Additionally, we will have printed copies for you to have on-site!
