I have received a proposal from the Red Lion for use of rooms on the weekend of April 13, 2012. To summarize it they want $94 a night for room PLUS they want $1200 for the use of the meeting rooms to which would be added the standard 22% service fee (thus totaling $1465.
For me, this is unacceptable. We'd lose money and, I suspect at that room rate, attendees.
I called the Clarion. Their rooms are not available on either April 13 or 20 weekends. Bill Stone cannot attend if we have it on the weekend of the 27th and I'd like to accommodate him. The rooms at the Clarion are available for the weekend of May 5. The manager told me she would honor what we had in our contract in 2010, which was $80 room rate and free use of the meeting rooms.
So, what is your feeling about having WCW on May 5. Some might argue that we are competing with the convention but I don't believe that. Not many from the west coast are able to get to the convention anyway and those that would go would probably go to both. I don't believe that having WCW at that time will hurt the convention at all.
Please give me your opinions too sweet.
Barry
