I think I will probably be going. I'll have my squids that weekend so I'll have to see if they want to go or I can swap weekends with their mom. This will be about a month before my move to Oregon and I would really like to make it. -Joe ------------- 2002 Indigo Blue Z-71 |

For everyone's info if we can't fill the 8 rooms our price is going to go up drastically. They say that there is a soccer tournament in town and the whole city is booked up. I hate to say it but if we don't fill the rooms we will probably have to cancel the gtg due to the high room rates and lack of available rooms elsewhere in the city. Still have my fingers crossed!  -UtahAV -Mark http://www.chevyavalanchefanclub.com/cafcna/index.php/topic,95669.msg1555615/topicseen.html#new - http://www.chevyavalanchefanclub.com/cafcna/index.php/topic,95669.msg1555615/topicseen.html#new ------------- 2003 Light Pewter Metallic Z71 WBH |

Update!!
I spoke with Jane at the Doubletree Hotel a bit ago and she changed things around a bit so we will still be able to make the gtg happen!! The new policy is this; for the 5 of us with a reservation already made or anyone that makes one before midnight tonight, the Doubletree will honor the $109 per night rate. They showed 6 reservations yesterday but one of them was in error and is shown canceled today that leaves 3 open rooms available to us at the group rate. At midnight tonight the 3 remaining rooms will be released back to the hotel and will instantly be booked as they have a waiting list for that weekend. So the summary is; the gtg is going to happen!, those already with reservations will have the group rate honored, if you don't make your reservation tonight for one of the remaining 3 rooms you will pay more and you will have a very difficult time finding a room in Grand Junction due to the Soccer tournament that same weekend. I will be happy to try and help find rooms for anyone who would like to make the gtg after the midnight cutoff tonight. When we get to Grand Junction we all need to make a point thank Jane for all of her help with the gtg and honoring the rate at the last minute. She saved the gtg!! See you all there!!! -UtahAV -Mark So the GTG is still on! Hope you can join us!  ------------- 2003 Light Pewter Metallic Z71 WBH |

Some folks from AZ can't use their reservations they've made at the Doubletree if anyone is still interested let me know and we can make arrangements to transfer their reservations over to you and you'll get the discounted price. ------------- 2003 Light Pewter Metallic Z71 WBH |

Someone can still get the reduced rate at the Doubletree if they'd like to transfer the reservation from the couple from AZ. Check out this thread on CAFCNA. You have until tomorrow before they cancel their reservations.
