hi,

  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.

  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

  *(Gary, Please send to leader’s list and anyone else  who is possible
  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.
