The dates for the Southern this year are
april 26-28. Hampton Inn is good everywhere and the Comfort Inn is also very good in Sanford.

If you have not been to the Southern, graduate to the Hampton without stopping at the Comfort. The Hampton is the PGCA headquarters hotel. It is worth the extra money. Last year, the Parker and Smith display tent was on site at the "Dove Field" at the Challenge five stand. It is a short walk from the main display tent area and clubhouse. Great area to hang out and park your car.

Many of stay at the Comfort Inn and one of the benefits is nighttime security by off duty Sanford Police officers funded by the Virginia Vintagers and coordinated by Jent Mitchell. No worry about your vehicles and items left in them.

The Quality Inn does have its advantages, but in my experience cleanliness is not one of them. I'm seriously thinking about staying at the Hampton Inn this year.

Several years ago, "The Lovely Linda" told me that it was fine if I wanted to continue staying at the Comfort, but....you know the rest.

It's a flea bag motel for sure. Only bad part about not staying there is the proximity to the Wagon Wheel Restaurant (I think that's the name). Awesome gravy biscuits for breakfast.
