Dear Lacers - for anyone who tried to book a room in the "Finger Lakes Lace Guild Block" set aside for Ithaca Lace Day October 6-9, 2006, at the Ramada Inn and was told that there were no rooms left - this was in error. Please call up the Ramada Inn again. They goofed and we've straightened them out now, after having heard of the problem from someone while in Montreal. The Ramada's number is 607-257-3100. Please use this local number rather than the Ramada chain's 800 number.
If the person at the desk still tells you there are no rooms, be insistent, ask for Scott, the Operations Manager. We just called them yesterday and there are still plenty of rooms in the set aside block, but apparently someone at the desk was confused in the past. You shouldn't have any problems now, but if you still do, after asking for Scott, please contact Holly Van Sciver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or me privately and we'll get on it immediately. We suggest reserving a room even before you know what choice of workshop you got, simply because hotel rooms are ultimately limited in Ithaca. If you choose not to come after receiving your class registration confirmation, you can always cancel (1) the hotel reservation per the policies of the Ramada Inn (check with Ramada for the policy that applies to these blocked rooms), and (2) your class per the policy printed in the Ithaca Lace Day information materials --- just please do both promptly so someone else may have your space. You should be getting your Ithaca Lace Day registration confirmations from the Ithaca Lace Day Registrar the week of August 21st. Great seeing so many lacers in Montreal. Our hosts did a fabulous job. Cheers, Shirley Egan, Aurora, NY. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
