It's sponsored by Steel City Fins, the local parrothead club. That's all I know. Do we have any members on here?

Does anyone know of other Hotels doing a similar thing. Or, if there were enough of us interested....we could "charter" a bus....or shuttle...

Your in a tough spot too. Having to drive around Lake Erie and all. Don't know which way you should go.

Well, there's a great outlet mall just south of Interstate 80 on Interstate 79. Stopped there last year and did some great shopping.
I believe that is called the Grove City Mall. They even have
a little Heinz Outlet with off-the-wall products like pickle pins. :pirate:
That's the one. Had a great time on the way home from Pittsburgh last year.

I read here that some weren't sure if there was a shuttle and some said there definitely wasn't. I called and confirmed today that there is no shuttle (I'll NEED a shuttle...like most!). The search continues. Many hotels in the area seem to have no availability, like the Holiday Inn in Coraopolis.
Rooms still available at Holiday Inn (airport) 8256 University Blvd.Coraopolis (Moon Twp) who has Friday party & offers bus shuttle. It is best to contact Joyce who handles this ... 1-412-631-1342 or jbthomas@hipitt.meyerjabara.com

Yes, contact her. Trying to book through any Holiday Inn website (as I had tried to a few days ago) will show no availability.
