Housing: NSBA wants to ensure that the best rooms (see map and rates ) are available for Conference attendees. You must register to attend the Conference before your housing arrangements can be made. Here's how it works: Conference Registration: All registrants receive a confirmation ID# for use in reserving their rooms. The quickest way to receive a confirmation ID# is to register online and provide us with your e-mail address. Hotel reservations are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, and must be made through the NSBA Housing Bureau . You must have a confirmation ID# to reserve housing. Reservations made directly through the hotel will not be guaranteed. You may register and reserve housing online, by phone, fax, or mail.

Travel to Chicago: Once again, NSBA has named Association Travel Concepts (ATC) as the official travel agency for our 2006 Annual Conference. ATC has negotiated discounts with United, American Airlines, Avis, and Enterprise to bring you fares and rates lower than those available to the public. Chicago is our kind of town — and yours! The host for NSBA's 2006 Annual Conference is one of the most popular convention cities in America. Chicago is also a world-class tourist destination — a great reason to bring your family along with you. Dining and nightlife. Enjoy a deep-dish pizza, invented in Chicago, or a prime steak, perfected in Chicago. Explore the Loop (maybe via the elevated "L" train) and visit famous jazz clubs. You know the movie Chicago? See and hear what inspired it! Museums and more. Discover the Field Museum and Sue, the biggest T. rex ever found. Plus the Museum of Science and Industry. Not just one but two zoos. Museums of classical and modern art. The world's largest indoor aquarium. Architect Frank Lloyd Wright's studio and the Robie House he designed. And the splendid Botanic Gardens. This city really grows on you! Shopping and skyscrapers. Max out your credit cards on the Magnificent Mile, then visit the Navy Pier with its 150-foot Ferris wheel. Speaking of heights, try dining on the 95th floor of the Hancock Building or visiting the Skydeck of the Sears Tower — 110 stories up. The sky's the limit on fun in Chicago! Want more details?
