Recommended Hotels and Special Booking Options

For your convenience, we’ve arranged three hotel options for the Parent-Connection Playshop. Guests may choose Option 1, 2, or 3, or make their own hotel arrangements if preferred.

 

Note: Options 1 and 2 may be used at any Westgate property and on any date and time the registrant chooses. While many participants find it easiest to use these options during the week of the course, doing so is not required.
