[KCDXC] Crowne Plaza - Hamvention 2012 - Reservations open Monday, June 20, 2011 at 9 AM EDT

[MCrabtree]

Yes, it is real. I would not post it if not true.

N0RB has been in personal contact with K3LR at Hamcom in Dallas.

We, the KCDXC,  are only guaranteed the suite and adjoining room.

The CP is still the place to be with the contest dinner and Contest 
University also there.

Geeze...

Guys,
   As some of you probably know, K3LR has rented out the entire Crowne Plaza

next year for Hamvention weekend.

This changes everything for us and everyone else.

Rick, N0RB, has been working on this for several days but just learned
tonight that K3LR will only reserve the suite and our adjoining  room for
the club.

This means everyone else must call in their own reservations if the they
want a room at the CP next year for Dayton.

They will only allow people to reserve 2 rooms so Rick and I can get only 4
of our usual 8-10 rooms.

Sorry, for the late notice, but we just found out tonight about 10 PM.

If you want to stay at the CP you must call in tomorrow morning at 9 AM EST
to get one for yourself!!

See below for the number .

GL!
