Ad Club will be attending the Chicago Advertising Federation's Career Day on Friday, February 24.  The conference is $75 and you can register here.

We have free Megabus tickets leaving from Cincinnati and Columbus on Wednesday, February 22.  Buses leave Cincinnati at 9:15am and 6:30pm.  The Columbus bus leaves at 10:40am.  Contact Tyler Perrino (tp254907@ohio.edu) or Stephanie Cesear (sc235508@ohio.edu) to be added to the bus list. Note that you are responsible for purchasing your own ticket back to Cincinnati or Columbus.  The most popular route is the 10pm bus on Sunday, February 26.

You are also responsible for booking your hotel.  Try to book in groups of 4-5 for the cheapest rates.  Use Priceline or Hotwire to find the best deals.  Stick to the River North/Magnificent Mile or Loop areas to be close to the rest of the group.  Some of us have booked the Four Points on Rush & Ontario, but they may be completely booked now.  Try bidding around $58 for a 3 star in the North Michigan Ave - River North Area on Priceline to see if the Four Points is still available.  Once you book your hotel, make sure to call them and request 2 double beds in your room.

We will tour Starcom, Mindshare and Red Frog on Thursday.

Please contact Stephanie Cesear (sc235508@ohio.edu) if you have any questions about the trip.
