The Friday night pre-party will probably be moving to a neighboring establishment this year. I plan on going to Frisco this Saturday to check out a couple of options. I expect to have things firmed up next week.

JustShari found that if you book online using promo code VALUE15, you should get a rate of $63.75. Enter in the comments that you are with Parties That Matter, or call them after you book to let them know you are with our group.
Thank you Shari!

OMG...I booked my room 2 hours ago using this promo code. I just checked and it is not valid for this hotel any longer. Plus, the rates on the website went from $75.00 to $89.00 in the past 2 hours.

Who Hoo Thanks Bill
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body,

“Wow, what a ride!!!”

Just to clarify for everyone again - we are not making any money on parking, simply passing through our cost.
You must join our party by paying for wristbands in order to get parking spaces in our lot.
