More details to come as they are made available by NEA.

Hotel Information:
The Wisconsin delegation hotel will be the Notary Hotel. We have negotiated a rate of $ 189.00 plus taxes in a group room block. This for a single/double hotel room with a $20 charge for additional guests above 2 people per room.
The room block expires on June 6 so please make sure to make your reservations by that date. More information will be coming on how to reserve rooms. We are recommending that all delegates stay at the Wisconsin delegation hotel because we have signed a contract and need to fill our room block at the hotel. In this contract, the Notary is not allowed to sell rooms at a rate less than our negotiated rate so this should be the best possible rate for the Notary Hotel during our stay.
Our group rate will apply to the group guests 5 days prior and 5 days after the group event, subject to hotel availability if you wanted to come early or stay later.
