PROM Workshop 2007 (Prominence Research: Observations and Models)
October 29-30, Space Sciences Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley
Berkeley Campus Hotel
2007 PROM Workshop Hotel Information:
I have arranged to hold a block of hotel rooms at the University of California's Faculty Club, which offers affordable lodging on the Berkeley campus. The H-line ("Hill shuttle") bus runs between campus and the Space Sciences Lab, where we will meet, every half-hour.
Currently, our group has 18 rooms available checking in on Sunday, October 28, and out on Thursday, November 01. Check-in and check-out dates can be adjusted +/- one day for each room. The rooms are being held under "PROM Workshop."
I ask workshop attendees from the U.S. to please reserve rooms for themselves (and guests, if any).
Foreign attendees are welcome to make reservations themselves, but I am willing to make arrangements on their behalf. If you want me to make reservations on your behalf, please contact me with your desired check-in and check-out dates as soon as you know them.
When making arrangements to hold the room block, I dealt with Janet. But she implied any desk clerk would be able to handle a reservation, or connect you to her.
Reservations need not be made until approximately three weeks prior to our meeting (i.e., in early October), after which unreserved rooms must be released.
There are, however, two reasons why you might want to make reservations sooner rather than later! First, only 12 of these rooms have a private bath; the other six are "dormitory style," with shared baths. (The latter rooms are cheaper, though!) Second, because a football game is scheduled for Saturday, November 03, only three rooms can be reserved through the weekend, should any PROM members wish to remain in Berkeley after the PROM meeting.
(If the 12 rooms with private baths are gone by the time you want to make a reservation, other options with private baths are available: the Faculty Club also has two more expensive rooms with private baths [one of which is a large suite], and other [albeit more expensive] lodging options [hotels and B & Bs] also exist near campus.)
Please contact me (welsch@ssl.berkeley.edu) if you have any additional questions.
