Please! Stay at the Crowne Plaza Albuquerque hotel which is the Blitz Headquarters. 

We have contracted for 75 rooms at a rate of $114 per night, which is a great discount and includes breakfast. Click here to register at the hotel now! If you have trouble with the link, the hotel is the Crown Plaza Albuquerque, Group Code SGB.

Since the days start early (7:00 am), being onsite will be much more convenient for you and provide an opportunity to have more time of fellowship with everyone participating in the Blitz!  You will not regret it and assuredly will be blessed because of it!
