Overnight Accommodations
Overnight rooms are being held for Symposium participants at the Prince Conference Center located
on the Calvin College campus, ten minutes from the Gerald Ford International Airport. Please make
room reservations directly with Ellen Hekman of the Henry Institute using this form, rather than
contacting the Prince Conference Center directly. You need not send a housing deposit, but full
payment for the room and any incidental charges will be due when you check-out, to be paid to the
Prince Conference Center at the front desk by cash, check or credit card.
All overnight rooms include either two queens or a king-size bed, as well as daily complimentary
deluxe continental breakfast, an on-site fitness center, cable television and free local phone calls.
Please note that the entire Conference Center, including meeting space and overnight rooms, is a nonsmoking site. Room costs are $85 per night, plus 6% sales tax and 9% occupancy tax; two King Suites
are available at a cost of $116 plus tax. There are a limited number of rooms at the Prince Center, so
please make your reservations early. The deadline for holding the Symposium block of rooms is
March 29, 2015; after this time, on-site rooms may not be available. Should all the rooms at the Prince
Center already be booked when we receive your reservation form, we will notify you of other
available hotel space in the area.
Preferences for sharing an overnight room may be included on this form, and we will attempt to
accommodate your request by assigning you with another Symposium participant. If you are making
your own arrangements to share a room with another individual who is attending the Symposium,
please include that person’s name on this form for our records and for hotel reservation purposes.
Please note that it is still necessary for each Symposium participant to complete and submit the form,
even if you note a shared room on this registration form.
Shuttle transportation between the airport and the Prince Center is available for Prince Center
overnight guests between the hours of 6AM and 10PM, with at least one week’s advance notification
(on this registration form, or by calling the Prince Center directly at 866-526-7200)
