The Church IT Network is excited to be heading to the D.C. area for the first time for our 2018 Church IT Conference! We’re expecting 400+ church IT, ChMS, Web, Dev, and Online Ministry staff and volunteers to descend on McLean Bible Church Oct 2-4. This is your opportunity to connect and learn from peers and trusted technology partners. Combined, we represent over 1 million churchgoers. This is the largest single event for Church IT collaboration, inspiration, and community among peers from churches of all sizes and types. Many more details to follow, but here are the initial deets…
Oct 1 - pre-event meet-n-greet dinner
Oct 2 - 9am event kickoff
Oct 4 - 2pm event end
Reagan isn’t bad. You can take the Metro really close to McLean Bible and Uber the rest of the way. There is a station at the airport.
I think it is Blue line to Rosslyn.
Transfer to Silver line.
Silver line to Spring Hill. Probably about $5.00 total cost of the t rip.
To add what Kevin said, the silver line will take you by several hotels in Tysons Corner that will be within walking distance of the stations. We’ll have more hotel info as we get closer to the event.
Since I’m renting a car anyway I got a hotel in Fairfax, VA for $90/night. Best Western Fairfax. It got good reviews on Trip Advisor and appears recently updated. It’s about a 18 minute drive to the McLean Bible Church. There were several other hotels in the similar price range and even cheaper motel type options if someone is really on a strict budget.
I haven’t seen any group hotel rates posted but when I inquired I was told even with the group rate they were on the expensive side so I decided to look on my own to stay within the budget I wanted to keep.
I paid my registration fee and booked my flight, hotel, and rental car today so I’m pumped for the conference! It was cheaper to fly into BWI than Dulles or Raegan so the drive will be a little further but worth the savings for my budget!
I registered, but never got a receipt emailed to me. Who do I contact to get a receipt so I can get it plugged into my accounting software? Thanks so much for your help with this!
If you are not used to the DC traffic, do allow extra time to get to McClean Bible Church if you are not close by. Both traffic and stop lights can lengthen the commute.
I’m looking at the same hotel, any chance you’d be up for carpooling as I won’t have a car this year. I can find another ride if needed, just trying to plan ahead.
Sure thing. I’m flying solo this year and already have the rental car secured. I think it’s a quad cab truck since it was the cheaper option which was surprising.
