OK - In order to get accurate information on meeting venue's, I need an estimated attendance number and an idea on when you would be coming into town, so I can look up and talk to meeting planners about space and getting a "group" of rooms... most casino's only let you get a group of rooms if there are 100 rooms or more...
I'm looking into Hawthorn suites as well because you can get a group rate of 10 or more rooms and because they're suite style (extra sofa bed) which means folks can double up (4-6 ppl per room) if they want to...
So - The preferred date we're looking at is September 24-26, the alternate date is Sept 17-19...yes, 2004.. haha
Shout off if you
DEFINATELY plan on being there and give a small shout if you're in the "maybe, depends on funds" area as well... I'll try to work with everyone as best as I can.. but it's vegas and it'll be a weekend event...
I need a really *good* estimate in order to "budget" wisely and get the best bang for our buck. The number of attendees is really important to Vegas meeting planners (just found out).
Today is Wednesday March 24 at 11:30pm (my time)... I will give everyone one week to put your "shout" in.. if you need more time than that, PM me.
Thanks!
