Accommodations are available at the Walter Gage Residence on the UBC Campus. They are located in buildings adjacent to the meeting space. To help manage our convention budget, only these accommodations are included in your registration. Expenses for other hotels, etc. will NOT be reimbursed.
Rooms will be apartment-style, with 4 single bedrooms and 1-2 shared bathrooms. Some rooms suitable for families and those with speciailized needs are also available. We will do our best to accomodate these requests. It is expected that delegates needing to travel more than 45 minutes (each way) to attend the Convention will stay in the Residence rooms; however, each Delegate may have personal circumstances affecting their choice to stay in the Residence so this option is available to everyone.
Please indicate whether you will stay in the Residence by checking the boxes below, and the BC Synod Office will arrange a room on your behalf. Delegates should plan to stay on-site for THREE (3) NIGHTS - Thursday, Friday and Saturday (checking out on Sunday). The Convention begins on Thursday late afternoon with registration followed by worship at 7:30pm. The Convention business will continue on Sunday, so please plan your travel to depart from UBC after 12:30pm.
Some Synod Council members may also need to stay on Wednesday night to attend Synod Council meeting at 4:00pm on Thursday.
