Hotel room block update (5/18/2014)
As many of you may know by now, we have sold out of all discounted group rate rooms. If you have not already made a reservation at the Great Wolf lodge you may get on a wait list by calling Jennifer Schuckman with Great Wolf Lodge at 513-459-8885 ext: 740.
There are also several other hotels that are quite close to the Conference. We do not have a group rate with any of them and we encourage you to check them out on Tripadvisor to see what might work for you and/or your family.
If you do stay at a different hotel you should be able to get a Great Wolf Lodge waterpark ticket that for $40 per person per day.

2014 Conference Information
We are so excited to announce the dates and location of the 2014 1p36 Deletion Support & Awareness Conference and it is destined to be an unforgettable experience. The conference will be July 17th through July 20th and will be hosted at The Great Wolf Lodge in Cincinnati/Mason, Ohio.
The Great Wolf Lodge is a Northwoods-themed resort packed with fun for everyone. It features a 79,000 square foot indoor waterpark where you can experience the thrills of their 15 waterslides or relax on an inner-tube in the lazy river. The outdoor pool has zero depth entry, sprinklers and plenty of shaded room under the umbrellas to relax and visit. Take a look at www.greatwolf.com/mason/waterpark to see and read more about the fun.
When you want to have some dry fun, there is an arcade, bowling alley, putt-putt golf, a spa for the kids, a spa for the adults and so much more. Check it all out at www.greatwolf.com/mason/explore/family. For reservation information please click here.
Your Conference registration will include Breakfast on Friday and Saturday as well as lunch Friday and Saturday, but there are also many dining options within the lodge. There are two restaurants, a pizza place, a snack shop, ice-cream and bakery, Grizzly Rob’s Bar and a Starbucks. You can find the delicious details at www.greatwolf.com/mason/amenities/. There are many restaurants near the hotel as well.
After a fun filled day of informative and inspiring speakers, bonding with other families, good food and adventurous water fun, you can end the day with story-time by the fire and fireworks in the sky. What else could we possibly need?
We have secured an amazing family suite rate of $129 a night plus tax and that includes full use of the water 
park. These rooms sleep up to six adults with two queen beds and a pull out queen- sized couch. We also have King suites available for the same price, which sleeps four adults with a pullout couch. All rooms include flat screen TVs, coffee maker, wet bar, mini fridge, microwave and four waterpark passes. You can purchase extra waterpark passes for $40 and are good for your entire stay. The room rates are available from July 14th through July 23rd so you can extend your stay and make a full family vacation out of it! This is such a great deal!
We are so excited to share Cincinnati with all of you! There is so much more to experience outside of Great Wolf Lodge. There is a walking path that leads to Kings Island Amusement Park next door to Great Wolf Lodge if you want some more adventure. Closer to downtown Cincinnati you can visit the Cincinnati Zoo, The Freedom Center, Newport Aquarium, The Cincinnati Museum Center, The Horseshoe Casino or go for a ride on the B&B Riverboat. Take a look at www.Cincinnatiusa.com to explore all the reasons to extend your stay in Cincinnati!
