As much as we believe that the Convention alone should be enough of a reason for hundreds of undergraduates and alumni members to attend, we also realize for many members that this could very well be the only vacation they are able to take for a given year. So we choose locations where there are many other exciting attractions, many within walking distance, and activities to fill our free time. And Pittsburgh is no exception.

We also hope that our members will bring their families and friends to share in this tremendous experience.

Station Square is Pittsburgh's most popular tourist attraction. It is located along the river and the Sheraton is Pittsburgh's only riverfront hotel. It's the hippest place for dining, nightlife and entertainment in the burgh!

The centerpiece of the 52-acre riverfront complex is the state-of-the art Fountain at Bessemer Court which features hundreds of multi-colored water jets soaring in the air as they dance to music.

Take a sightseeing tour of the city with one of many different modes. Set sail aboard the Gateway Clipper Fleet as you cruise along Pittsburgh's three rivers. Quack yourself up as you take a journey in a World War II amphibious vehicle on land and water with Just Ducky Tours. Or experience the wonder of futuristic transportation on a Segway in Paradise Tours. Plus you can head to the top of Mt. Washington on a historic cable car trek on either the Duquesne or Monongahela Inclines to take in the breathtaking views of city's skyline.
