Hotel Information
Rooms have been reserved at two neighboring hotels at different rates. While the two properties are only about a seven-minute walk apart, a shuttle will run hourly to move attendees between the two locations.
The Radisson Resort and Spa will host most of the meetings and clinic sessions, while the Divisions II and III caucuses will be held next door at the Holiday Inn SunSpree.
Both are resort properties located in the heart of Scottsdale. The Radisson is a 76-acre, four-diamong resort setting that offers the Mist Spa, a 20,000 square foot spa and fitness center. It also has 21 lighted tennis courts.
