Group Rates

[Eighty-Eight]

Done. I cancelled HI and booked BW for 6/18. Psyched.

Thanks 88. I hope Tim can get a rate that is competitive with the BW, just in case.

I got a double queen for the group rate for 6/17, 6/18, 6/19, 6/20. Since I am involved with setup/teardown I'm planning on staying a bit longer than most others will.

I suggest anyone planning to go make their reservation now! This place *WILL* fill up, and probably soon. June is "Wedding Season" in Jersey, I'm told.

Hey Tim, is the Holiday Inn still a choice, or is the BW our "official" hotel. I think they're less than 1 mile apart.

EDIT: Would be nice if I read your reply COMPLETELY. Any luck with the Holiday Inn?

No luck with the holiday inn. Their sales dept is NOT returning calls, possibly because they were nearly full already.

I would advise to go with the Best Western I'm on the line with the best western now making my reservation.

The rate I was given at Holiday Inn Hazlet (with the Triple A discount) was $144.00. That was for a single with a queen-sized bed.

Thanks, Tim. That would be great. If you do happen to workout something at Best Western, I was told that I could cancel my Holiday Inn reservation without penalty.

Group rate at the Best Western Hazlet Inn is $85 night + tax. Mention Speed Bag event or use code BAGS to get the rate, which is good until May 18th. Must reserve with a credit card.

I haven't been able to get a hold of the sales dept for Days Inn yet, but will try again tomorrow.

The speedbag2010.com lodging section has been updated with the details.

Definitely going to Speed Bag 2010. Booked 6/18 at the Holiday Inn Hazlet, group rate or not. They said they had about 9 rooms left for that night. June is wedding season. Gotta go put more time in under the board.

Hi Eighty-Eight, I'll get on the phone with them on Monday and see if we can get your rate changed , although if they already have only 9 rooms left, they may not be looking to offer us any deal. There is another place nearby, I believe a best western. I'll let you know.

Tim,
I am planning to attend SPEED BAG 2010 on 6/18 and 6/19 (day only). Have the group rates at the Holiday Inn Hazlet become available yet? If not, will you post the announcement when they do become available? I wonder if the group rate will apply in my case since I'm only staying over one night.

Thanks,
