Form can be completed, then faxed or mailed; OR reservations can be
made by phone or Internet.
Reservations will be made on a "first-come, first-serve"
basis until all hotel rooms in the housing block are taken. All requests
are being handled by the New Orleans Metropolitan Convention and Visitors
Bureau/Southern Baptist Convention Housing Bureau through I.T.S. - a new
reservation system.
