I relayed to our search agent the board's interest in trying to get wi-fi in the convention hall for delegates to use. She was able to negotiate a contract clause for 2018 which says if we use the hotel's in-house A/V provider, we'll get free wi-fi for up to 600 connections in the main hall. That's a high-value concession that I thought you'd be pleased to hear. We often, but not always, use the in-house A/V company. A/V is one of the largest cost categories for our events, and it sometimes pays to shop around. Obviously for 2018, the value of the in-house wi-fi concession will have to be factored into the consideration of any competing bids from outside vendors.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br></font></span></div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><br></div>-Alicia<br><br></font></span></div>
