This year, FGS is offering a roommate-finding service. As a member of the FGS Conference Planning Committee, Bobbi King will receive email requests for individuals looking for possible roommates for Boston. You can email her your inquiry and she will match you up with a possible roommate. Send details such as: your name, city and state/province, e-mail address, telephone number, and about the type of roommate you are seeking. This would include such things as smoker/non-smoker, late or early to bed and to rise, arrival and departure days, whether or not you have already booked a room, male/female roommate preference and special requirements. The information you provide will not be posted online. It will be shared only with others seeking a roommate. Bobbi can be reached at Rking24600@comcast.net.
