I agree. The Hampton Inn in Jersey is where I stayed in April and is super nice. With your Hilton Honors card it is just 99.00 bucks a nice for King Suite. I would love to come. My bestfriend lives in Cape Cod and I love going there. I drove from Ky. and although 24 hour drive which I won't do again, couldn't fly because I was delivering a 5 week old Mini Daschund but was beautiful scenery. Can't wait.

I would love to attend. Please let me know the details as soon as you do. I assume you want something in North Jersey. May I suggest the Marriot on

Rt 4 w which is in Fair Lawn, Nj. Very easy acess to nyc.

Is this a couple hour seminar or a couple day event. Im in Columbus Ohio and would not attend for a one day event but would consider for 2 day event.

Yes - I hope to attend.

I live here in NYC, so I certainly prefer NYC. With over 40 million visitors a year, MANY groups have conferences here. Unless there is some DRASTIC cost difference, NYC is by far better than NJ. Also, 2 airports are north of NYC (LaGuardia and JFK). Only Newark Airport is in NJ. If anyone were to fly into the NY airports it's a PAIN to get to NJ.

Hands down, it should be NYC. Also, great docs, plastic surgeons, etc are based here in NYC. Easier for them to commit to a conference here.

Work with the tourism & Conference Council (it's called something like that) and seek their guidance to help you navigate getting a conference set up.

Hi Gaylerob,

This is only conference Alex and I will be hosting on the east coast this year. There may be others, just not hosted by Alex and myself.

Hi Ginnee,

This is a two day conference. Friday night is a meet & greet and the conference on Saturday is all day from 8-5.

I hope this helps.

I would like more details when they become available. Also interested in touching base with other Canadian lap-banders...Ontario to be specific. Is there anyone out there??

[PATCHELTON 0]

May I suggest Baltimore, Maryland as a possible site. Convention space, lots of hotels, near BWI airport, not far from Washington DC, and several Bariatric Centers of Excellence in the area (I was banded at St. Agnes Hospital).

I am really interested in this conference. I wanted to attend the one in Dallas but with the travel costs it was way to much. I would prefer NJ because of the price and I am in NJ. But I will still attend in NYC if the price is not outrageous. Please keep me up todate on the details. Thank You!

livingston NJ is not really a good choice if people want to have the option to go into NYC at night or to even go out on the town in NJ. a better area would be around secaucus/medowlands as its very close to NYC by bus or train.
