has the right to either charge IAFP for that number of hotel rooms not fulfilled and or reduce the amount of meeting space provided and increase the prices charged for food and beverage. This can have a damaging effect on the financial outcome of the Annual Meeting. We realize there are many options for lodging in the Anaheim area, but we ask you to book your room at the host hotel, the Hilton Anaheim. This will help ensure that we meet our obligation to the Hilton and will keep our Annual Meeting expense under control. Should it happen that too many people book rooms at off-site hotels, our meeting costs will increase significantly, thereby causing future meeting registration fees to increase accordingly. The host hotel offers the best access to our meeting space. The Hilton is newly remodeled and updated and provides the opportunity to network with friends and colleagues throughout the beautiful property. We encourage you to help support IAFP by making your IAFP 2010 reservation at the Hilton Anaheim. You can’t beat the $149 rate and the convenience to our meeting. Why pay more when you can be in the center of all the Annual Meeting activities at the Hilton Anaheim??? We look forward to seeing you in sunny California this coming August. Please let us know if we can assist you in planning for your IAFP 2010 experience. JUNE 2010 | FOOD PROTECTION TRENDS 335
