Make sure ADA room and access is in the RFP, and you should either be all good, or they should hire hotties to carry people wherever they need to be.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I could live with this option, ijs.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Okay, if we're actually discussing possible hotels in-thread, may I repeat my plea for more hard data, specifically previous year's rates? I asked about it a couple days ago and got no response, not even a 'wait until we firm the dates'. Thanks.

Our wings are not tired.
The all inclusive Club Med I went to, you had to pay for liquor. So I was wondering if it was a redefinition.
I've only been to the one here in Florida which was quite family friendly with plenty of activities for the kids and free booze of any variety for the adults.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Where in Florida was that, Laura? That's the only place I've been to Club Med myself. Maybe the bitching got to them.

IIRC, Juliana, the hotels were $89/night in Evanston, between $109 and $129 in LA (depending on which hotel), and $139 in DC.
If at all possible, I'd like to get us back to Evanston prices for next year, rather than continuing to climb up. (And I think starting super-early, as we're doing, will help us there.)
[eta Prom rates. In Evanston, there was a general "pay what you can" pool collected. In LA, we had "prom tickets" for $20/person, and in DC, people paid $22/person. In all cases, there were some people who couldn't afford to contribute, and some people who contributed extra.]

Sorry, $99 seems to be the sweet spot for room rate. We had problems getting that low of a rate at a hotel we liked in DC, I think partially because of the late start we got, but that's me pretty much speaking out of a feeling, not hard facts. We should be able to get a better rate by hitting early. My goal is to have a signed contract with our chosen hotel in October.

Also, I'm a bit late, but I just posted the dates for F2F 2005 in press, May 20-22.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

In LA it depended on which hotel. Most people stayed at the Safari, and paid less. The details for the LA F2F are here:
Allyson "Sunnydale Press" Apr 11, 2003 3:25:17 pm PDT
Safari Inn King or double bed size rooms: $83 per night Suite: $109 per night, for 2 people. $10 each additional person
Anabelle Hotel King or double bed size rooms:$109 per night Suite: $139 per night, for two people. $10 each additional person

Thanks, everyone. Sorry if I sounded a bit snippy last night.
The data is much appreciated.
