LAS VEGAS continues to capture the world's imagination as the destination where anything is possible. With its award-winning restaurants, luxurious spas, fantastic shopping, world class golf, and truly unique entertainment, Las Vegas remains one of the most exciting convention destinations in the world. Mark your calendar and join SSA: September 10-12, 2009, in Las Vegas! You'll have an opportunity to learn from industry professionals who will teach you how to beat the odds and stack the deck to prepare for a winning future.

All of our functions will be held at the luxurious Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip. SSA will be one of the first conventions in the hotel's brand new convention and expo tower. You'll be just an elevator ride or a short walk away from all of the SSA activities and your industry peers; no need to brave the heat, since everything will be under one roof -- enclosed and cool!

SSA has negotiated "economic stimulus" rates for our attendees: $135 plus tax single/double through Thursday, September 10; and $165 plus tax single/double for Friday and Saturday, September 11 and 12. Call the hotel directly at (702) 731-7222, or toll-free at (866) 227-5944, to reserve your room NOW.

The SSA room block is likely to sell out well before the cut-off date of August 14, 2009. Be sure to identify your affiliation with the "Self Storage Association" to receive special SSA hotel room rates! We urge you to make your room reservations ASAP! Our block of rooms usually sells out early.
