The weekend of Oct 2-4 is going to be a busy one for Saskatoon hotels. The
Delta Bessborough expects to be sold out that weekend.  To date about 60
rooms have been booked to Access '98 delegates. The Bessborough is setting
aside an additional 20 rooms for Access '98 until September 11. When those
are gone additional rooms at the conference rate will be subject to
availability. If you plan to attend Access '98 I strongly advise you to
make your hotel reservation promptly. To book, call (306)244-5521 or
1-800-268-1133 and ask for the ACCESS '98 conference rate. 

If you are unable to get a room at the Delta Bessborough, ask your travel
agent to check availability at other Saskatoon hotels. 

If you have already registered for Access '98 we look forward to seeing
you in Saskatoon in October. If not, please visit the Access '98 Website

value for 1998!
