Hausmans June-Hotel

For those planning on attending the shoot is there a hotel of choice in the Vestal area ? Last September a good number of us stayed at the Candlewood Suites which was a nice place. Rooms there are about $130 nightly as of now.

Many of us have always stayed at Quality Inn & Suites in Vestal.
They have always been very accommodating and the price was right.
Usually Larry or I had blocked off rooms for the PGCA so have at it - give them a call.

My business is in Vestal and I live a stone's throw away in Kirkwood. I plan on going to the event (first time ever) so hope to meet some folks on here there? If anyone needs help just PM me, likewise for restaurant recommendations. Except I can't find the date of it : (

Thanks Dean. I saw their rates while looking online and they were low for that area so I was somewhat skeptical. I was hoping that someone would have something positive to say about them which you did. I shall give them a call in the next day or so.

Let’s hope the Coronavirus doesn’t impact this event in early June! I’m wondering about the Southern next month! More State and local governments are banning gatherings.

The Quality in Vestal has been my choice for a decade. Of course, I would rather camp in the field and sleep in my truck.

I'm sorry Bill why are you trying to stir fear into everything about this flu. The H1N1 killed almost three hundred put a quarter of million in the hospital and it got media attention but not like this that has killed less then twenty in the US, I'm sorry this is serious but it must be a slow news day. And you are fueling it!

I’m not trying to “stir fear” into anything. I was expressing my thoughts about the situation and I’m sure everyone has this on their mind. I hope things calm down and things go as planned. I certainly want them to! I have room reservations and plans to attend. I just had to cancel a trip to see my family in California next week and my yearly excursion to South America is in jeopardy. I don’t need to be chastised by you for expressing my concerns.

Number dead doesn't matter it's the death rate and I think nid is spot on. Don't ignore that .1% die of the flu and death rate of Covid19 is 2.3% to 3.5% (depending on source). We;ve studied the flu for years, we know nothing about this virus. So your typical Parker owner (who is older) is 25X+ more likely to die if they get it. It's like putting an unknown shot shell in an un-inspected damascus barrel (gotta keep it gun related right?). It's an unknown how many will get this. Here in Vestal they are cancelling all elective surgeries like knee replacements and things are starting to shut down including dentists. I don't think it's hysteria it's just uncharted territory we're in. This is worth a look and why social distancing works better than quarantines:
