Sort of.  The new ownership has been renovating and upgrading the
facility with the plan to re-brand it as a Holiday Inn.  As everyone
knows, we had to endure a wing under renovation and tramp through
plaster dust and past exposed wiring to have a Hospitality Room.

Working with the new management in 2010 was not a pleasant experience.

Their proposal for us for 2011 would have required us to book Friday
lunch and dinner as banquet meals, or would have required us to
increase registration fees by more than $20 for us to cover additional
charges.  Sleeping room rates would have increased as well.
