DCM Report: Albert S.

An email was received by Bill O. stating:

“This message is to inform you that the offer made by the Holiday Midtown in Grand Island may no longer be our best option for the location of our events in 215-2016.

The presentation during the March Area Weekend included information that all room and set-up fees would be waved.  Due to a change in hotel personnel, revised contracts including this information were never sent and were we to accept the hotel’s offer, it would include a $500 per event set-up fee which would be waived only if we could reach an unrealistic number of room rentals.  This further complicated by the hotel having no dates available in either June or July.  This, of course, would significantly affect our schedule of events for those years.

Fortunately, we are not without options.  The Sandhills Inn and Convention Center has all of our requested dates for both years and will hold those dates until after our September Area Weekend and I will also contact the New World Inn in Columbus for their availability for our request dates.

I will have more information at the September Area Weekend and you can expect an Emergency Voting item at that time.”
