Spring Southern Accommodations

[Bob Decker]

Has anybody arranged for a block of rooms for the Spring Southern?

[Randy G Roberts]

Not to my knowledge as of yet. This should happen soon I would think. I did try a few weeks ago when I booked but the hotels were not interested in doing so that early.

Check out the Comfort Suites on Bragg St I think. Nice place.

I just checked Comfort Suites and they are full. Has anyone checked Residence Inn. Their website is a pain to navigate

This’ll be my second time to stay overnight at Sanford , last year I stayed at the Econo Lodge , but I was traveling with just my Boykin . All I can say is the shower was warm , the sheets were clean , the air con/heater worked and no one broke in my truck . So it provided all I needed , I did have to pay an additional $10 a day for the dog to stay in here cage in the room . A big plus for the Econo Lodge you can walk across the parking lot to a pretty decent seafood joint .

we also found out comfort was booked up. holiday inn express was prob next choice.they were still taking reservations when we checked wed nite. prices from when i had booked last year were noticeably up. may hold off one more year.

If our leaders are up to par like past years, they may be blocking rooms at the same hotel as past years. What's up?

[Brian Dudley]

Will we see you there this year Bill?

[Bill Murphy]

Yes, and I have presents for you.

[CraigThompson]

Well I have a covered room that has a bed supposed hot water supposed heat/air con and I just got a golf cart reserved . Got shells loaded for all but my mountain howitzer . So all that needs happen now is for me to STAY ALIVE load the truck and drive .

[Mike Koneski]

We had our room in November. Once you get close to Christmas it seems like the hotels book up pretty quickly. Guess I'll be calling for my cart tomorrow and doing my preregistration with Deep River.

[Andrew Sacco]

Do you necessarily need a golf cart? I like to walk when I can, or use a gun caddy.

I am now on the Senior Circuit (60 or over) , not in as good shape as you and I like to carry extra stuff . I also plan to shoot six guns on Friday . I’m not walking all that and drag all the extra crap along . Nothing against walking I just choose not to if I have the option .

Dave isn’t coming this year ? Or just not bringing the cart ? As to hotel I think I booked it in November or December .

[Randy G Roberts]

IMO yes, definitely. The Southern is to spread out. If you are going to shoot several rounds you can wear yourself out. Stations get jammed up, with a cart just move on to the next open one, hard to do that walking.

[Mike Koneski]

Dave and David will be there. I get a cart anyway as we often shoot different events. I’ll wind up shooting 13-14 events not including the Smith-Parker Challenges. First year there I hoofed it around the course with two guns each trip around. Let’s just say this will be my ninth or tenth year and I only made that mistake one time!!

The Sr label got me a day or two before your shoot last year . :crying:

[Mike Koneski]

[Bob Hayes]

Boy it's going to be crowded there.At least we can all keep an eye on each others guns.

[Jay Oliver]

I am looking forward to going this year as well, I will be staying an hour away at a friend's house.

[Keith Sirmans]

Guess I need to go ahead and get a room

[CraigThompson]

Chuck have you already made reservations at the Italian joint (resteraunt) ? :whistle:

[Mike Koneski]

Faxed in my registration and rented my cart. Feeling like I accomplished something today!! :whistle:

[Chuck Bishop]

No need for reservations Craig as long as we keep it a secret between you and me!
