Get those bus/trip registrations in ASAP the bus is taking on passengers.

The Cincy PHC has some fun surprises planned.

It's Party Time!

Pholks,

Be sure and get your Cincy Parrot Head Block rooms booked soon, they are going fast.
If you want to book a room at one of our 4 hotels and the block is filled let me know and I will see if we can add additional rooms to the block.

Also, I am very excited to report that McCormick Distilling is giving us some fun stuff for the Bus Trip. oops there went one of our surprises.

Cincy and Part -

Thanks for the word on motels near Riverbend - I made a reservation at the Cross Country Inn today. I think there are still 8 rooms left there, the Red Roof was all booked up.

Looks like I might be the only representative of the Parrotheads in Amish Paradise in central PA. I'll be driving in from the Harrisburg area - my first time at Riverbend, 4oth Buffett concert since 1977.

See you there!

Dan

Medcopter1,

40th Concert! You are one lucky parrot head. Congratulatons!

Will be good to meet the lone bird for the "Parrotheads in Amish Paradise" PHC in central PA.

You will have a great time!

Fins!

TO ALL: Latest official word from Red Roof is that the Cincy PHC block is NOT full.
They still have 6 rooms available. The block will cancel 5/18/02 so hurry and get them now! Bus is filling too...so don't get shut out! Party time!

Drat -

When I called the RRI, I was told all of the Parrothead rooms were booked - maybe they opened more up. Of well, I'll be right across the street - close enough to join the party I'm sure.

There are still rooms available @ the holiday inn in Covington KY. Its a 10min ride to Riverbend...Just thought I would pass the word...
