Sweet! The more, the better! I have to enjoy this trip... this will be the closest to a vacation I've had in a long time. Are the rooms going to be by eachother?

Not sure, but we can request it when we check in. Maybe we can be on the same floor. I know that they were getting close to filling up when I made my reservations last month. And if we want all the rooms close, it'll just depend on the hotel layout since we have 2 deluxe and 2 suites.

Yeah, we made separate reservations. I just called them and requested that our rooms be next to each other so we'll see how it goes.

Nyt-Owl, don't forget to call later this week about the bed thing. I just checked and she said that it hadn't changed, but since you were a club member you get first priority.

While this thread was closed, a couple suggestions were made for items to be brought for the trip:

extra towels
pillows
sheet if sleeping on an air matt
bathing suits
any fun games (cards and drunk jenga already coming)
there will be 2 coolers to keep beverages cold during the trip
your "beverage" of choice for drinking while at the hotel

I have the third set of walkie's so I'll bring those Tuesday.

By the way, I'm having to work that Friday, but I will still be able to make it afterwork for the meet-up at The Rig, so count me in. By the way, can we all be sure to fill-up on gas before going to The Rig? This would help out alot.

From what I remember, the Rig wasn't too far down on 35 so we were all going to fill up before leaving there.

Well I figure anyone staying in Tiff and NO rooms can just pay them. As for the Executive suites I will have to ask Jackie.

All our CC's will be imprinted at check-in. We can inform the hotel staff at check-in that the room(s) will be split.

Hopefully this won't be an issue for them!!!

Won't they charge for extra people in the room if you do that? Just curious.

Jackie said we will discuss this on thurday at BJ's...I don't think we should let them know how many peeps will be in room. I am bringing cash for my room for Tiff.

They will charge extra if there are more people in the room. That's why Nyt-Owl's quote was more than mine: he said there would be 4 and I said there would be 2. I've never heard of a hotel splitting the bill, but there's a first time for everything. I think we'd be better off having one person pay and the others pay that person. We also need to be careful during check-in. That would be very odd if 4 people check in and 15 people are standing by waiting......

Has anyone looked at the map and have any thoughts for the return back? Maybe there are some key points of interest that would make for a good place to rest and BS.

Here's a map that a friend of mine gave me. The higlighted paths are where he and his buddies used to ride their bikes. Maybe we can hit up some of these?
