This year’s fabulous room rates begin at $99.00 per night single or double occupancy plus a $10.00 per day per person Resort and Service Fee that includes, among other amenities, admittance to the fitness center and a full service children’s program for those TER members bringing their young children. Special room rates are also available on a limited basis for pool and ocean view rooms. These special TER rates are available from December 24th to January 4th and only for TAU EPSILON RHO members and their guests!!

Located in the Bahama Islands, the SHERATON OUR LUCAYA RESORT & GOLF RESORT is a magnificent facility with all the amenities of a superior first class hotel.

General information including recreational amenities such as the fitness center and children's Camp Lucaya are listed on the hotel’s web site at www.sheraton.com/ourlucaya.

Included in your $500.00 per couple ($250.00 for singles) Convention Registration Fee are the opening night dinner with entertainment; continental breakfast with two CLE sessions; business meetings; and the installation dinner with an entertaining program. The hotel also hosts its own private New Year’s Eve Reception which is available at additional cost. As always, the hospitality suite will be open every night for snacks, informal get-togethers and those "famous stories." Complete details and convention updates will be posted on our web page, www.ter-law.org. If you will be bringing non-member guests to the convention, other than your children, they will be required to pay the $500.00 registration fee in order to get the benefits of the reduced room rate for our group. Of course, those registered guests are entitled to participate in all of the TER activities and functions including evenings in hospitality.

Details concerning our CLE speakers will be available shortly as well as information for obtaining CLE credit for attending the sessions. We are currently searching for interesting and relevant speakers for the installation dinner meeting and your comments and/or suggestions will be taken under advisement.
