OK GREAT NEWS TINA WILL BE HOSTING THE MIDWEST MEET AND GREET, I might give her a hand. WHEN: January 10th and 11th (Check in at 2pm) WHERE: SteepleGate Inn (100 W. 76th st. Davenport, IA) I Spoke with the GM at the SteepleGate For about an hour today and got us some great rates, This is a very nice hotel, with a great bar, very nice restaurant, large indoor pool with alot of tables and lounge areas, I explained the purpose of our meeting and he was very helpful, not to mention I personally know the owner, who never goes there, but I did drop the name LOL http://www.bestwestern.com/prop_16083 With the use of this type hotel the won't be much reason to have to leave, everything we need will be there. Rates are $99.00 single occupancy, However I was able to negotiate these rates Hows $64.00 double occupancy sound and that includes a killer breakfest buffett. Here's the catch we need to book 10 rooms so I need to know AS SOON AS POSSIBLE how many of you will be in attendence. I'm going to post this in general post as well LEE

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm LEE? - you decided the date and time already?? Are we in a hurry?? I thought maybe we'd get people's thoughts before we decided. Whatcha doin? I thought maybe we'd see which town would work better for everyone......... wait a couple days to see who replies....... It matters NOT to me which town it's in.....and I dont care who hosts it.........but dontcha think we should give it a minute?? Love ya man....... Tina ps - just so everyone knows..... the Steeplegate Inn is a very nice hotel..... used to work there also. Lee is correct, we would never have to leave if we didn't want to.... it's got everything we need ....

Tina, I understand but I'm very driven and when I get started doing something I never quit until its done. I also sometimes get myself in trouble doing that. LOL I never intended it to be carved in stone, I figured that if it didn't work for most people, I'd hear about it. So lets just call this tentitive, and wait for feedback. LEE

Woobs, Thanks again for the email "heads up". We'll have to check our schedules but I think that Jan 10,11 would work out. Oh yeah, did somebody mention pheasants? ... Hey Bus, I'm in ... have shotgun ... will travel! BTW, I grew up in the Peoria area and still have family around there. It's been 15 years since I've lived there, and things have certainly changed since then, but Peoria does have some nice places too. Take care BruceD

I might be able to make this too. Personally Peoria would be good for me too since it is a lot closer, but Davenport is only a couple hours, so no big deal either way. And I don't want to influence too much since I'm new to both the board in general, and this thread. Unfortunately not new to CH though...

.... you all planning something without me?.... It doesn't matter to me where it is.... but I'll need plenty of advanced notice.... I'm pretty tied up with work... and I'm comming from the Bootheal of Missouri.... (I love this place.... ) .... as long as I can take some time off work, RJ Reynolds keeps makin' smokes, and the radio keeps pumpin' tunes... I'm in. -Big Dan

Unless something drastic happens, such as Nevada outlawing gambling, I'll be in Reno that weekend. Sorry, would have liked to have been there. Maybe I'll send a care package PF

Hello all Terry here in Davenport Iowa only 5 blocks from Steeplegate Inn. If any thing i can do to help if in this area please feel free to ask me ok. I am unemployed but getting disability because of my chronic cluster headaches. Just started disability last week. So i am free most of the day. But I ussally can not drive cause of meds I am on. Mainly the pain patch I wear 24/7. But have wifey and son and daughter and best friend to take me places if need to. Nite all and if I can help please ask. Also any place you all decide is ok cause I could do the Rockford or any other IL town close to here. P.S. Looks like River Rat is closest to me I could help him if he works o-tay Ü

Anyway< I hope your Ok (Not chornic, or in cycle right now) Do you plan on getting a room, IF not, that's OK I think were going to be alright as far as room count is concerned, I think we have 7 for sure already and I'm sure there will a few more. Welcome to the cluster family and I'm looking forward to meeting you. LEE
