Hokay...I have the scoop on our new hotel option.
While there are rooms available both weekends, we would not be able to get a hospitality suite the first weekend.
The pricing she gave me is good as long as we commit by April 1st. Kings and Doubles would be $95 and we would not have an obligated minimum number of rooms. Parking and wifi are included in that price. Nicole and I will go over the details regarding the hospitality suite and prom costs.
So, my new question is - does the lack of a hospitality suite knock out the first weekend? We could always get a regular room as a meet up and "notice board" place.
And - who sets up polls? If we haven't knocked out that first weekend, then we should do a poll - I have the selections, just don't know how to set it up.
I can set up a poll. Tell me exactly what you'd like me to ask and I'll have it up in a jiffy.
I just put it together. Link in Press.
Thanks!
The prices are good as long as we commit by April 1st, so we can let it run for a while unless one weekend heavily outshines the other.
I will be out of town the 19th - 25th (in DC!!!), so if we can't get something firmed up before, I still have time after.
If any past organizers want to send any tips/hints, I'd appreciate it.
Hospitality suite is no biggie; a couple of gregarious peeps just gets rooms next to each other and posts DO NOT FUCK WITH ME hours.
A double is $95? That's doable. Pool/hot tub...or what's the name? I can look it up. I'm all efficient like that! And helpful!
If we go with the current hotel that I'm looking at there is both an indoor and outdoor pool, plus jacuzzi.
Thanks, Pix!
Erin, I believe it's this hotel. Which is super close to the Cool River Cafe that has the best smoked prime rib quesadilla ever. The mango chicken salad is pretty damn good, too.

Yep. And a pretty decent gym. And a full service Starbucks in the hotel, for those that like Starbucks.

Excellent. I don't need horses, then. Do they serve booze in the hot tub and at the pool? I may not leave it all weekend, mmmk?

AHAHAHAHAHAHA! You are so funny! It is to laugh.
...Wait, you were serious? ;)
That restaurant sounds good.
ETA: I looked at the hotel and it looks nice! That outdoor terrace it really pretty; i wonder how expensive/viable/interested people would be in having Prom out there.
Also, I would LOVE to go see the Botanical Gardens.
I'd love that.
Off to LA on a packed plane loaded with teenagers. Thank dog I ponied up for priority seating.
