You will be able to reserve your room via 2 methods: 1) Call hotel directly at 800-848-8877 (available NOW). To receive the group rate, attendees must advise the reservations department of the group affiliation --- here use "Binary Asteroids". The hotel is the Sheraton Steamboat Resort & Conference Center, Steamboat Springs, Colorado. OR 2) Special web-access registration, but this will not be ready until early next week (approx July 11), when we will have active a web registration form for the hotel. The web address will be emailed when it becomes live. This method may be more convenient. Our block of rooms can be expected to be available for several weeks, with a current hotel registration deadline of Aug 7. Nonetheless, it would be advisable to make your reservations as early as is practical. Here are the details of the rooms: The Hotel is pleased to confirm the following special meeting/convention guest room rates, per night: Room Single/Double Rate, USD Standard View Two Queens 109.00 (actually choice of 2 queens or king for a limited time) Upgraded rate options: Valley View Two Queens 124.00 Slope View Two Queens 139.00 One Bedroom Hotel Suite 199.00 Two Bedroom Hotel Suite 299.00 Village Inn Deluxe One Bedroom Condo 259.00 Village Inn Luxury Two Bedroom Condo 359.00 Village Inn Deluxe Two Bedroom Condo 329.00 Two Bdrm Morningside Condo 419.00 Three Bdrm Morningside Condo 519.00 Four Bdrm Morningside Condo 619.00 Four Bdrm Morningside Condo 619.00 These guest room rates will be offered by Hotel 3 days prior and 3 days after the meeting dates (which are Aug 20 - Aug 23), subject to availability of guest rooms at the time of reservation.

UPDATE: Yes, the $8 resort fee is correct, even if the reservation system tells you $13 or some other amount (their system is somehow stuck in displaying only winter resort fees, which are higher). Room rates are based on double adult occupancy. Additional adults will be charged $25.00 per night to occupy the room. Children 17 years and under stay free with an adult. Rollaway beds are also an additional $25.00 per night. Village Inn and Morningside condominiums may require a minimum five (5) night stay.
