they want to continue the event and Steve, who fractured his leg again has handed the year's work to his son & to another. they may have a solution and will know by Monday. If the solution is unavailable, they will probably forgo this year & work on getting it together for next year

the Ramada to my understanding is a total loss and will not be renovated

So in other words the Ramada is marginally worse than usual.

Last year I has so many ants in my room I went to the vending machine and bought crackers to put in the corner of the room so they would stay on their side. True story!

On the upside, Steve will be forced to move the event, assuming he wants to continue. It would not surprise me if he chooses not to continue the event.

Austin would be fabulous(it will likely be incumbent upon you to organize KirbyJ). I have zero interest in going to Cleveland.

from trip advisor:

To summarize: no heat in lobby, no cable all weekend, some showers only had scalding hot water, some showers only had ice cold water, mold in rooms, dressers hadn't been dusted ever, never got extra towels, no cups in rooms, no refrigerator, ice makers didn't work on any floor, phone didn't work so couldn't call front desk, pool half full, hot tub was roped off with a power line hanging above it, dead bat in stairwell and to top it off....fire alarms went off at 7 am Sunday due to pipes bursting on the 5th floor due to no heat up there. Water gushing out of the elevators, down stairways, flooding rooms & hallways and making at least 2 inches of ice at the exit door. Checking out was insane and the poor girl at the front desk had to deal with dozens of irate customers....no management to be found. We had over $ 4,000 worth of rooms that all refused to pay for.


so the question is at this late date will Steve Haynes be able to find a suitable location in time and will it necessarily increase costs to attend

I know the end of this hotel will please some.. but will you be as pleased if no replacement can be found?
