2016-06-23 Host Committee

Attendees

 

Discussion

  1. Registration status update.
    Registration currently in the high 20s.  Too early for this to be a cause for concern - some people staill travelling after OR, some waiting for outline program, some waiting for new fiscal year etc. 
     
  2. An inquiry from Yale on if we would offer single day passes.
    After discussion decided "no".  Potentially these places take away from full-conference capacity and they are too much of an admin overhead.  Even at $135 (the full ticket price) for a day, this would not represent expensive training.
     
  3. Local restaurant list (and if they take reservations) and transportation directions for Boston.
    Karen will start (Google) lists of lunchtime and evening eating recommendations.  Steven and Eben will produce something on transport options to/from airport and from the BPL/hotel to/from Northeastern (for those going to workshops there).
     
  4. Next Meeting:
    July 14th at 11:00 AM EST.
