If you joined us in 2007, you already know that the Marriott Griffin Gate is an exceptional conference venue. In fact, our attendees raved about it, rating it one of the best locations we've had in twelve years of Users Conferences. But, as nice as the Marriott was in 2007, it's even better now. One notable addition is a first-class spa.

Learn more about the beautiful Marriott Griffin Gate (and take a photo tour). Then, check out the official site for Lexington, "The Horse Capital of the World."

Speaking of "Horses" and "World," just a month before our conference, Lexington will be the focus of worldwide attention as host of the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games. You may not be familiar with the WEG yet, but as the event draws nearer you'll certainly learn its significance, not just for Lexington but for the entire country. This prestigious competition occurs only once every four years and has NEVER BEFORE been held in this hemisphere! As the closest major hotel to The Kentucky Horse Park, site of the Games, the Marriott Griffin Gate will no doubt host some of your favorite media personalities—and possibly even some members of the world's royal families. Who knows? Join us at the Marriott, and someone very famous may have just occupied your room!

This Marriott Griffin Gate experience is yours for only $115/night—single, double, triple and even quad occupancy! Plus, the conference rate is good 3 days before and 3 days after the conference, so plan to spend a little extra time in the beautiful Bluegrass. Note that the conference begins early on Monday, so you'll want to arrive on Sunday, October 31. Note also that you must reserve your room directly with the hotel. The easiest way to do that and be assured the conference rate is to use this special Marriott link. The conference rate is guaranteed through September 30, 2010.

Location is great, and we're proud that the world will focus on Lexington this fall, but training is the real focus of our conference. The Annual Users Conference is definitely the fastest way for new users to get up to speed quickly and for seasoned users to boost productivity. We train hard, but we have a great time doing it!
