Conference 2017 |
Meal Options There are various options for dining throughout your stay. Prepaid breakfast (Mon. - Thurs.) and dinner (Mon.-Tues.) options are available for Bartol Hall, a dining hall at Simmons College near the dormitories. Breakfast is $5.75 each and dinner is $13.00 each. Individual meals can be reserved when you register. Lunch is on your own (M, Tu, Th) and can be purchased at The Fens, a cafeteria in the building where the conference activities will be held, at a cost of $11.00. We recommend that lunch be eaten on campus if participants plan to attend the workshop session following lunch. Dinner on Sunday night and lunch on Wednesday will be provided by the conference and are already included in your registration fee. Dinner on Tuesday night can be reserved for Bartol Hall or can be on your own in the area of Old North Church where the evening worship service will take place. On Wednesday afternoon, conference activities move to Old South Church, so dinner will be on your own in that area. We recommend that participants enjoy dinner at one of the fabulous eateries near Old North Church and Old South Church. For both evenings a list of restaurants near those churches will be provided at the conference. | Meal Options Chart

Parking at Simmons College A word of advice to those leaving early on your day of departure: The day begins at 3:00 a.m. at the garage. If you leave the garage before 8:00 a.m. you can get a cheaper rate by paying for that day yourself. Consider this when reserving parking. Getting Around |
Hotel Options For those who prefer a hotel, a limited number of rooms will be available at The Inn at Longwood Medical,
at a conference rate of $219 per night for both singles and doubles. Parking for hotel residents is
$25 per night. Breakfast is not included, but the facility includes a
restaurant and a food court. This hotel is about a quarter of a mile
from the Simmons Campus. Hotel reservations are solely the responsibility of conference participants and must be made before June 7, 2017. For more info or to make online reservations, go to The Inn at Longwood Medical and use the group code: UCCM2017. Or call 617-731-4700 or 800-468-2378 and ask for the rate for the UCC Musicians Association. If you prefer to do your own research, here is a list of area B&Bs and hotels. Prices are for guidance only. Be sure to verify all information before you make your reservations. The conference is being held at the height of summer (and Red Sox games) so prices are often higher at this time. ANY accommodations except at Simmons College are on your own. We suggest you make your reservations as soon as you can. |
