I do not believe this to be common.

>> 3) An earlier start time--An earlier start time would make it
difficult for
some people travelling longer distances and not opting to fly to attend the
convention without having to leave their respective homes on December 25th or
before. Also, if we were to extend the convention to the 31st does that mean
the closing banquet would be the night of the 31st? If so, we would have to
check out future hotels for what happened in MinneAPOlis about having to be 21
to stay that night. But then again, since this was my first convention I do
not know if this has ever happened before.<<
I do not think that this is too common. For Dallas and Phoenix for a better
air fare home back to PA, I stayed until Jan 1. There were a large number of
Brothers that stayed in Phoenix. (Remember the brotherhood circle around the
2nd floor balcony?) Arrangements can always be made. Usually the convention
rates goes until the 1st at least. It seems interesting that the hotel would
have this type of policy.
Enjoy!
