Motel Registration

Apparently some AFS members are being told that no rooms are available for the AFS meeting in Bossier City when you call the Holiday Inn reservations desk. However, this is not true, you just have to ask for the “SALES” office in order to reserve a room that has been set aside for the AFS meeting. The phone number for the Holiday Inn is (318) 742-9700 and be sure to mention your with the AFS 2000 meeting when talking to the SALES office.

We have reserved a block of 125 rooms for January 23 and 24. The cutoff date for the guaranteed room rate is January 3, 2000. The room rate is $65 per room, regardless of single, double, triple or quad. The room rate does not include the 11% tax or the breakfast buffet. Individuals are responsible for their own reservations and payment.

Ask for “AFS 2000” when registering.
