Please indicate the cost of round-trip airfare from your home to the conference and submit receipt when available. $____________________________

In the past many Wiggies have opted to rent cars. We encourage you to do so again since this gives you independence and reduces our transportation costs. If possible, please organize a carpool to the resort. Budget rental is offering discounts. Call 1-800-279-3734 and give them the following code: Z192. Please Note: Budget has offered us the use of the van for free, if they have 20 z-code rentals.

If you are willing to carpool, please indicate time of arrival and departure above and specify carpool.

Location: Rio Rico Resort is located 45 minutes south of Tucson. Exit Tucson International Airport (Tucson Blvd.) and turn left onto Valencia Rd. which intersects with Highway 19. Take Highway 19 south toward Nogales and then exit 17 to the Rio Rico Resort.
