 This AG was in a fancy resort, for which the organizers had gotten a very favorable rate due to it not being the peak season; in early July, Arizona tends to have 100+ degree heat every day, causing many vacationers to avoid it.  But they say "It's not the heat, it's the humidity"; Arizona's desert heat is dry heat, and can be put up with if you drink plenty of water.
 The hotel rooms were very large and luxurious, and the resort had amenities such as multiple enormous swimming pools and a water slide.  The several restaurants within the resort offered a 50% discount to AG attendees (which perhaps merely meant that their regular prices were enormously marked up).  However, by its nature, things were spread out quite a bit, requiring outdoor walks through that 100-degree dry heat to get between events.
 Among the speakers at this AG were the controversial Sheriff Joe Apaio.
