Rogers, Arkansas - Embassy Suite Hotel REGISTRATION HOME PAGE |
|---|
Welcome to the official online registration site for the 2008 Daisy Homecoming, hosted by the Daisy Museum!
This site will outline the key events of the celebration. This secure online registration site is provided by the City of Rogers Convention & Visitors' Bureau. Once you fill-out the attached form on this secure server, your registration will be transmitted to the Daisy Museum who will process your order. As an option, you can also print out the registration form and mail it with a check to the Daisy Museum (see details at the bottom of the registration form).
Please note that an early registration not only helps the Daisy Museum to better plan for your visit and have an accurate headcount for dinner.
We'd like for the Daisy Homecoming event to become known as the largest Daisy Swap Meet in the nation. The convention center in which this swap meet will be held (adjacent to the Embassy Suites host hotel) is first class. We will have a designated area for those who wish to set up educational and entertaining exhibits. And, we'll have plenty of room for sellers to set up tables to buy, sell and trade during swap meet hours. If you reserve both exhibit and selling tables, we'll make every effort to locate them so that you can man one and view the other. All tables will be draped. The cost of each table (either for exhibit or for selling) is $15 which (we hope) will offset the Museum's cost of the space.
In the interest of saving families money, we've made additional banquet meals for adults and children available so you can bring your spouse and family without registering everyone.
The host hotel is the Embassy Suites, located along I-540, convenient to restaurants and attached to the convention center in which the swap meet and the banquet will be held. There is a tremendous outdoor mall, easy to drive to, on the other side of I-540. Our special rate for the Daisy Homecoming is $99. Each room is a true two-room suite. The rate includes a full breakfast buffet every morning for each guest in your room and a manager's reception each afternoon.
You will need to reserve your room at the Embassy Suites and may do so following the submission of your registration. If you contact the hotel directly, be sure to mention that you are with the Daisy Homecoming Celebration in order to get this rate.
We look forward to seeing old friends, meeting new ones and having a great time. You'll have the opportunity to meet with current and past Daisy leadership and to socialize with collectors from all over the country. There's something on the agenda for everyone and even a few surprises.
