Accommodations for Synod Calgary are the responsibility of the delegates themselves, separate from the Synod Registration process.

Special rates have been negotiated at an area hotel near the venue. The hotel rates will be available until May 1. After that date, delegates may need to find accommodations elsewhere,but should try to book at the "recommended" hotel (using the link TBA) first. Please be aware not all areas or hotels in Calgary are recommended.

Hotels and additional information are listed below. The group name for each hotel is: TBA. You can use the booking link or call the reservation number and provide the hotel code/group name when making your reservation. (Click the floorplan image for a PDF version.)

Dining

Lunches, snacks and dinners will be served on site at Escondido United Reformed Church. On Monday, June 17, there will be a dinner available for delegates and attending officials. On Tuesday through Thursday there will be two meals, lunch and dinner, as well as snacks, available for delegates and those guests who sign up for these meals. On Friday, June 21, lunch will be provided, with the option of a box lunch if Synod closes earlier in the day. All meals require prior registration. No breakfasts will be served.

Meetings

The opening service, plenary sessions and all committee meetings will be held at Escondido United Reformed Church, 1864 North Broadway, Escondido, CA 92026.

Transportation

The San Diego International airport is approximately 30-45 minutes from the hotels. Transportation to and from the San Diego airport will not be provided. Delegates will need to arrange their own transportation to and from the meeting location, Escondido United Reformed Church. All pre-negotiated hotels are 15-30 minutes from Escondido United Reformed Church.

Scheduled Outing

The scheduled outing will be on Tuesday, June 18. After the morning devotions, join our local guides on an outing to Carlsbad. We'll start with walking along the paved path along Carlsbad State Beach. This 1.5-mile loop provides both an elevated overlook of the beach as well as a sand-level view. The loop includes walking up and down an incline, but no stairs are required. Participants also have the option of simply enjoying the view and the sand while others walk. Next, we'll head over to the Museum of Making Music, a unique interactive museum that explores the history of making and using instruments throughout time and across cultures. You can even try some instruments for yourself! Once we're finished jamming, we'll venture over to the Windmill Food Hall. This place offers a dozen food vendor options with shared seating so that everyone can find something for their taste buds -- including pizza & pasta, burgers & wraps, pho & Thai bowls, lobster rolls & tacos, and more. We'll finish our outing with a leisurely visit to the Carlsbad Outlet Mall with over 50 stores & boutiques. Note: We will be returning to the EURC in time for those who pre-registered to have dinner with the delegates.

This outing requires registration. Transportation and the entrance fee to the Museum of Making Music is included in the $10.00US ($14.00CDN) fee. Lunch will be paid for by the participant.
