At state we will spend two nights (Friday & Saturday) at the Embassy Suites in Murfreesboro. We put 6 students in a room (2 queen beds and a roll out couch) to help reduce the room costs. These room amounts will be due 2 weeks from today (October 27th). Each room will include breakfast and we will have a devotional service for anyone interested on that Sunday morning before we leave.
