Just a heads up that rooms are a little pricey this year, and finding availability might be tough since things are booking fast.

To help out, we've created the Slack channel #pmja2024-dc-at-npr specifically for attendees to connect and potentially find roommates!

Here's how it can work for you:

    • Looking for a roommate? Post a message in the #pmja2024-dc-at-npr channel with your details (arrival/departure dates, preferred hotel area, budget, etc.).
    • Have an extra space? Let others know in the channel if you're open to sharing your room.

By working together, we can make #PMJA2024 more affordable and ensure everyone who wants to attend can!

When:  Wednesday June 5, 6:30pm-ish (times vary by restaurant)

Where:  Meet in the lobby of the Morrow Plaza at 6:30-ish.  Reservation times may vary, so keep an eye on the conference app!
