charlier Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Hey Steve,When I went to the Best Western web site and tried to check on room availabilityfor June 28-30 the web site says "Hotel not available for date(s) selected".Is the Hotel already booked solid? If not, you might want to contact the hotel and let them know they should fix their web site.Did the hotel reserve the entire place for the AACA crowd and lock out their web site?

18OLDS Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Looking forward to the Meet-- In December I called the AACA office to locate the host hotel--They told me it is the Hampton Inn In Vestal and I made my reservations. Is this the correct hotel and if not, how far is it from the show field ????Thanks---Sky Borst-- Concord,NH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest boettger Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Answers to questions:1. Trailer Parking will be on the Campus of Binghamton University. .5 to .75 miles from the show field.2. The Binghamton regency is the host hotel. It's about 5 miles from the show site.3. Our flyer was just finished yesterday. Hopefully, I'll have an internet connection at the Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, Tomorrow and Saturday. If so, I will update the web site with more information.4. Will check on what's going on with the Hotel. Sky, the Hampton Inn in Vestal is a good choice, It;s not the host hotel, but is a nice new facility and only about 1 mile from the University.If you are at the Annual Meeting in Philadelphia this weekend, stop by our tabel in the trade show.I'll be there as will our show chairman. We'll have flyers and ready answers to any questions. Planning a National Meet is a pretty daunting task. With the help and understanding of all you, we'll "GIT ER DONE".Please continue to question us, HERE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest windjamer Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Hi all,Host hotel for Binghamton is Binghamton regency PH#1-800-7237676. Be sure to mention aaca for booking.
