hotel for thursday or the entire weekend

Post by jiggs(2) »

I just thought I'd let eveyone know that may not have a room that I now have an extra at the Holiday Inn next to Tweeter. Stayed there last year and it was well worth the couple extra bucks a night. I have a room with 2 double beds that I will be canceling on Tuesday unless someone out here wants it...the reservation is currently for thur fri sat but can be changed. I think its like $100 a night. email me or post back in this form and I'll get in touch with you.

O.K....since some of you will be leaving on your road trips soon, I have to get this suggestion out there... Since there will be a few BN pholks at the Tinley Park Holiday Inn, why don't we plan on making their parking lot our meeting place from 1pm-3pm...then we can all head over to the venue together!?!? How's this sound??? We'll have the Texas, OK, Illinois, Michigan, Colorado flags flying and probably some other BN paraphernalia!!!

Thoughts...suggestion!?!?!
