Just an FYI... there is a DETAILS thread for the March 4th Date.

If you are planning on going on the 4th...please post there....

Hey Rob....mb I should start another tread for you and I to try and get the March 4th group organized, as it seems only you, I, and Praedet are looking at this one.

Since I will be on my own, I am good with sharing a room for better costs...

 

I'm fine with it... but my wife won't agree! She is coming out with me.

I didn't realize you didn't have you LGT yet....

 

 

So...how many people do we have on the 4th? How many are planning on coming in Thursday night and will need lodging?

All of the hotels that are right off I-65 don't have any lounge area's, but there are several restauraunts nearby.

 

Another alternative ..... there is a really nice hotel in W. Lafayette (right over the river, near Purdue University) with a good size lounge/bar in the lobby. The parking is very secure and it is a brand new hotel. Plus... there are several bars right next door (it is near a campus, after all). My wife and I stayed there about 2 months ago on a weekend trip.

 

The address is :

Hilton Garden Inn

356 E State St

West Lafayette, IN 47906

USA

Rates are around $110, but it is a very nice hotel. If you can give me a count of rooms, I'll even check with them about a group discount.

 

The only downside to this hotel is that is it a few minutes (~10) off the Interstate.

 

Does this sound do-able?

 

 

Praedet, you following me out on Thursday night? I am going over from Columbus, OH....

So.... a few questions....

 

1.) My wife and I will be getting in the evening of the 3rd and getting a hotel room. Is everyone booking in the same hotel, or are we just doing our own thing?

 

2.) For the 4th.... would you all like to get together early (~7 AM) to have breakfast together as kind of a meet and greet? I thought it might be nice. S.R. 26 is one exit north of the plant and has numerous restaurants available.

 

3.) I understand that the tour will begin at 9 AM at the plant. Has the meeting location been firmed up yet? If we do #2 above, I thought it would be nice for us to all caravan the cars over to the plant...

 

Let me know!
