Alright kiddies, here it is.....

COLON PALOOZA 5

LOCATION: Hilton Hotel (downtown Nashville)
121 4th Avenue South
Nashville, Tennessee

RATES: Rates are $ 159 per night for one or two people per room. Those cramming 3 in a room, the rate is $ 169 per night. Daring enough for 4 in a room? The rate is $ 179 per night. (Video camera not included on that last rate!)

RSVP: You will need to directly RSVP with a credit card number. The last day to reserve a room will be August 12, 2007.

I AM TOTALLY BEGGING ANYONE PLANNING ON ATTENDING TO E-MAIL ME THIS WEEK. I have to sign a contract which puts me personally on the hook for the rooms not reserved. So with that stated, I'd really like an accurate count....GULP!

JUICY DETAILS: I have several things planned for this trip. Again, this is an outline, not the law. Honestly, though, it makes sense to do what is planned for the most part since the reason we're getting together is for the "TOGETHER" part! lol

The first night, Wednesday, we'll meet in the hotel bar. Head out for a casual dinner and/or drinks. Back to my room for more drinks.

The second day, Thursday, I have a few tours lined up. We'll choose a cool place for lunch, then off to a party in my room that evening. There will be a few surprises and a lot of fun.

Friday in the morning, we'll meet for a quick breakfast, and off to do some sightseeing. I'll have maps printed up with the highlights in the area. We can go as a group or individually. Personal choice. In the evening on Friday, we head to the Wildhorse Saloon for line dancing lessons (free of charge) and dinner. Everyone pays their own way for dinner & drinks....I'm nice, but not THAT nice! lol

Saturday, breakfast meet in the morning (probably no sooner than 10:00), more events (details on that to follow), head to lunch, and out on the town in the evening. This will be our last night together, it'll be great!

Sunday, all cry our ways home.

Folks can stay beyond Sunday, as the hotel promises to keep the rates the same for those choosing to do so.

So, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for the last time, let me know if you can attend. To date, I have the following confirmed:

Lisa Rose (& sidekick/hubby Andy)
Kerry (& sidekick/hubby Merriman)
Kay (& sidekick Kris~~her wingman when hunting Mooses!)
Scouty (& a few cases of Coors Light)
Me (with beer & drinks en tow for all)
Lisa (lfondots63)
Sue (jerseysue)
Ying (JADot...& hubby?)
Jana11 (& hubby?)
Suzannchilli (& anyone?)
SpongeBob (& Katie)
USAKAT (& SpongeBob! lol)
nanuk (Bud)
Katefm (& hubby Jim)
Sandyjig (& hubby Brad)
Sallygo119
Mikew42 (& wife Karlin)

I realize this is a long way away, but put your best effort into attending.

The details on how to RSVP will be available next week.

Thank you all SO much~~hope to see you soon!!

Stacy

    They have mooses in Nashville?????? Are they related to moose?

    This sounds great Stacy!!! The only other one that I can think of that said she might be interested is Lynn1212.

    This sounds like a very fun group and I hope we get even more signed up. I also hope a few of our ACS friends can come too...Jose, Dana, Greta????? They just aren't the same without y'all!!!!! After all you are part of the reason we will be there!!!!!!!!

    LIZ!!!

    I just peeked at your web site (www.runlizrun.com). Mind you, I am one tough cookie, but I must admit, you made me a little teary when I checked out the pics and story of your journey. I now must INSIST that you are in Nashville in September. I love your strength and way of seeing things. YOU ARE AMAZING!!

    Hugs,

    Y'all could have predicted mine.......Snooty Pottybrains. I meant to say that lynn1222 (not 1212) said she might be interested earlier too.

    This is great. I think we should make another post when this moves to page 2 so you can get the right number of rooms at the lowest price.
