Hotel Information

Hotels: 

Hey Everyone! Rampart and Liberty have recently announced that they are planning their own reunion events for the very SAME WEEKEND as us (July 31 - August 2, 2009). THIS MEANS HOTELS COULD FILL UP FAST! Besides, we don't know how many other groups could be coming to town needing hotel rooms.

As of right now, we are not planning to reserve a large block of rooms at any specific hotel due to fees for unforeseen cancellations, etc. (UPDATE:  Vince Moffitt has reserved some discounted rooms at the Embassy Suites.  See further below for more info).  Therefore, we need all of you to use the Message Forum here and/or the group Discussion Board at Facebook.com to communicate with each other about your need for accomodations ASAP. That way different ones of you can spearhead the efforts for various groups (i.e., late night party animals might want to stay together, those bringing kids may want to stay together, etc.).

We are recommending hotels in the area around Woodmen Rd. and I-25 off Commerce Center Drive.

From Vince Moffitt:

"I went ahead and signed a contract so we could have a special rate at the Embassy Suites. The rooms were going to be $139.00 but they are giving us a rate of $109.00. You can call the number listed below to make reservations. This is a pretty good deal considering the breakfast and bar deal that we get with the rooms. That information is also listed below. The rooms are going to be suites with King beds unless you specify that you want two queens. Also the suite has a Queen Hideaway. We can have up to 4 adults in the room at this price (normally they charge $10 additional for each adult above 2).

If you already reserved the room you need to call 719-955-6808 and speak with Susan and she will change your room to the group rate.

I only signed a contract to block 10 rooms because if we don’t get 10 reservations I will have to pay the difference. However we can go over 10 as long as there is availability. Please reserve your rooms ASAP because of the Rampart and Liberty reunions that weekend. One of these schools is having one of their events their Saturday night so I would suspect there will be people wanting to stay there.

Look forward to seeing everyone! Vince Moffitt
