    if you need to ship anything you can contact Kas or myself via message for our local Address.
    More importantly who do I get the paperwork from to give to local sponsers so we can have LOTS of good things for attendees!!!!
    Sponsors, sponsors, sponsors! Coke, Pepsi, Bud Lite! Pizza Hut! etc......

    I mentioned to kas also seeing if one or more of the local hobby shops would be able to bring anything out that could be used for rebuild or repair of our boats.

    Already talked to my LHS and they are thinking about that, they have another event they support going on as well so it may be a timing thing.

    It is.. its very nice. Kas has offered back rubs to all who attend. He was adamant that we all have a good time.

    How far per day is each person willing to drive for a hotel room? I will get a list of hotels and prices in the area and about how far each one is from the site.

    like 20 minutes. Ionia or the airport Grand Rapids hotels are all fine distance wise. Just dont want some roach motel. Pool conference room lobby hangout area, etc.

    If Ionia is 20min away the hotel we used in 05 was pretty nice.

    The last we talked Kas said this was the hotel: http://www.midwaymotelionia.com/

    I don't know if anything has changed. Bob is this the hotel you stayed at before?

    We stayed at the Super 8 just down the street. I know the Super 8 does not have first floor access, lobby and two stair door entrances with an elevator. This Midway Hotel might have first floor access.
