The NCC Fall Leadership Forum is taking place at the Fairmont Hotel in downtown Chicago. At this time, the Fairmont Hotel is sold out over the dates of the NCC Fall Leadership Forum. We have secured an overflow room block at the brand new Chicago Athletic Hotel which is within walking distance of the Fairmont. Chicago Athletic Association is an historic 1890's monument to the big-shouldered, can-do spirit that defines Chicago, transformed into an incomparable boutique hotel with commanding views across Millennium and Maggie Daley Parks to Lake Michigan. This Venetian Gothic landmark springs back to life as a hotel mecca for inspired recreation - where the spirit of play reigns supreme, and food and drink are served up by some of Chicago's finest talent. It's personal here, because the soul of Chicago is a kind of club - and on our team, everyone belongs. From the moment you walk in the door of this Chicago hotel, you'll get it - and it'll get you.
To make a reservation at the Chicago Athletic hotel, please call 844-312-2221 and be sure to mention the NCC Fall Leadership Forum to obtain the special rate of $229 per night plus tax. Please note that this discounted room rate will be available until November 4, 2015, or until the room block is exhausted, whichever occurs first.
