[Nfbmo] IREALLY NEED everyone's help

[Gene Coulter]

As I understand it we may have four meetings during the day on Friday- the 
only firm one being the State Board meeting. They are":
Parents Seminar all day
Students Seminar all day
Diabetes meeting and get together Noon- 2:00
State board meeting 3:00 – 5:00
If the hotel tells you they do not have a particular room type because block 
try telling the person you speak with that our contract is for “run of the 
house” and as you understand  it we aren’t limited to either King or double 
rooms and see if that gets you somewhere.
I have sent a message to the hotel with this concern.

Gene,
   What meetings will be going on Friday afternoono - will it be  before
1pm?
    I've been trying to register but I guess all the people  responding to
your post are clogging up the line - I keep getting put on hold  and then a
ring that never get's answered.  BTW, I will be getting a room  but I'm
planning to share with another person.

Dan

I forgot  to mention that the hotel rates are good Thursday through Sunday
nights.
That might be important since we are having some meetings  Friday during
the
day

attendee)
Hi folks,
I just spoke with the hotel in  Kansas City about our 50th annual
convention.
As of now we only have 16  rooms and ovviously they are skeptical about our
ability to fulfill our  contract.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE  call the Holiday Inn Coco Key at  1-816-737-0200 and
make your room reservations as soon as you read this! I  have a critical
meeting with them Wednesday morning  to determine such  things as the menu
selection for our meals and the cost to the affiliate  for meeting rooms we
have added since initial contract.
You should make  the hotel reservations even if you are not sure if you will
attend.
The  Facts:
You must make the reservation by Feb. 28 to be guaranteed our rate  and a
room at all. At this time the hotel has no intention of honoring the  rate
after that date.
You can cancel your reservation until 4:00 pm the  day before you  are
scheduled to arrive.
No hold will be put on  your card until the day you  are scheduled to arrive
Again the  convention is Friday March 30 to Sunday April 1 at the Holiday
Inn
Cocokey  at exit 9  on I-70. Rates are $75.00/night plus tax.
Please spread the  word to anyone not on this list.
Thanks,
Eugene Coulter, Convention  Coordinator
PS- it is not too soon to send in your convention registration  form
available on web site and in the Blind  Missourian.
