Post subject:  Spring Gathering - Fredricksburg

To all of those who plan on attending the Spring Gathering in Fredericksburg June 8-10 I've finally arranged a block of rooms for us. I had originally intended on renting out a B&B like we had last Spring in NC but the simple fact is that the town is in high demand and none of the facilities could accommodate all of us. Those that tried to were just too high as far as rates go. I've reserved a block of 30 rooms at the Super 8 on Main St. They've been kind enough to give us a very good rate, the facility is very nice, right in the heart of town and yes (you know who you are) they have a continental breakfast!

Here's the contact information, be sure to tell them you with the "Thorp Group"!

SUPER 8 FREDERICKSBURG
514 EAST MAIN STREET
FREDERICKSBURG, TX 78624 US
Phone: (830) 997-6568

Any questions feel free to call me after Tuesday at this number 713-303-1043

I was just reminded by one of the attendees that everyone would like to know who's attending. So, if you don't mind after you make your reservation would you please post on the forum under this topic after you've made your reservations.

Thanks!

That's the best they can do -- and it includes breakfast! It's half price if you share w/Fraser!

Rich,
Trust me $71.55 is a great deal in this town. It's a very popular place and they really have no need to bargin. For reference the Hotel on the airport is $179.00 per night and they wont even consider a group rate. The going rate per room at a B&B is $150-$200 per night. So all things considered I think we're getting off pretty good. Trust me you'll like the town, just bring your beer drinking, wine tasting, music listening and German Food eating shoes along!
