Concordia University, located in Orange County, is close to John Wayne (SNA) airport, and is six miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. It will be warm and sunny the first weekend in October! We are close to Disneyland, the beaches, museums, and shopping. Los Angeles is an hour away – so come a day early and stay a day later. The conference starts about 4 pm on Friday and ends about 5pm on Saturday.
We are very close to John Wayne (SNA) airport and there is shuttle service to the hotel we recommend (see below).
We have a terrific room rate with the Crowne Plaza Hotel, close to the airport and campus. Use the link to make reservations for $89 per night (single or double) and $6 per day parking if you rent a car. Be sure to mention “ALCF conference-Concordia” if you reserve by phone (949) 863-1999. Be sure to make your reservation by Sept. 17 to secure this special rate.
