    The 2007 OGS Conference will be held at the Hyatt Regency Columbus. Situated adjacent to the Columbus Convention Center, the Hyatt Regency is near the Short North, with its numerous shops and restaurants. Don't miss out on the North Market, an 1876 market featuring all sorts of wonderful food and artisan items. Also nearby is the Arena District, full of fun restaurants and nightspots.
