Participate in ASHRAE’s new ride, room and flight-match program! Have room for an extra passenger in your car? Can you leave your car home and look for a ride to the conference? You can also be more efficient with your lodging, find a roommate to share a hotel room.  If you are on a budget, sharing a room is a great way to cut costs and network.  Or fly with another conference attendee - maybe you can carpool to your home airport, or share ground transportation when you arrive.  Visit www.spaceshare.com/ashrae to save money, share space, and conserve fuel. This program was introduced for the New York Meeting and those who used the service were pleased with it.
