Make your room reservations early! 

Most symposium events are scheduled in Ajo.  However, due to ongoing regional construction projects, motel rooms in Ajo are expected to fill up quickly.  For that reason, we are providing information on lodging 40 miles north of Ajo in Gila Bend and 40 miles south in Sonoyta, Mexico. In Ajo, Gila Bend, and Sonoyta, motel room rates are very reasonable.  There are also beautiful tent and RV camping opportunities in the Ajo area.
