Siste Ananthasree,

 

I am a native Michigander!

 

You will not need a rental car. If you do not get a room onsite

(register early!!), there are shuttle busses provided by the ACM

(or, there were last year). If all else fails, your friend Erica can

help with rides! At the end of programs last year, I ended up

just asking random people if they needed a ride back to the hotel.

 

I don't think that the programs are going to be far from the

airport, but as I do not know the details of the program yet, I

cannot confirm that. However, the airport is usually VERY BUSY that

weekend so avoid checking bags, if possible.

 

I haven't been to a retreat anywhere else, so I cannot comment on

the size. I do know that it grows every year. I really hope that we

can go to the same hotel as last year, as I really liked it. The

staff was VERY helpful and nice.

 

If you have any other questions, let me know and I'll do my best to

answer.
