Sam, thank you for your consideration and vote prior to getting the
questions answered and a ballot declared. I would ask that if you have
quesitons or concerns, please ask them so that we may get the answers. I
also ask that you do not blankedtly dismiss this or any idea prior to
having an opportunity to address the concerns and make a proper
determination as to whether this venue will suffice.
I believe many of these concerns are implicitly answered by reading the
email Starchild copied us on where he laid out our requirements. I have
also asked Mr Hancock Whitney's questions and will await his response
before asking more.
Tim, Starchild did mention wifi in his initial inquiry and because Mr
Hancock did not explicitly state his capabilities, I will be asking this
question.
Hotels in Arizona are fairly cheap, in general and provided you aren't
looking for 5 star. I regularly am staying in one throughough the Phoenix
area and find the price range to be slightly better than average when
compared to traveling outside of the state. The average Hampton Inn is
right around $100-$110 as price point. I typically stay in Choice Brands
and pay an average of $60 a night. I will attempt to find out the specific
area and advise further. Remember, due to temperatures, this is the tail
end of our slow season.
The question of transport is fair, however, I note that many on the LNC
will need to transport wherever we are meeting anyway. Whether that is from
the airport to the hotel and we meet in the hotel or something else. If it
could save our membership hundreds, if not thousands, by not renting out a
space, I think it is worth at least a consideration before rejecting the
idea completely and not rejecting on a free offer at face value. I have a
car and am willing to pack it like sardines to save you an uber or lyft, if
that is your concern.

Does the place have WiFi to live-stream the meeting? What are the
room
rates for the hotels nearby or within walking distance?
