Title: Dallas-2005  
Post by Donna_D. on Dec 24th, 2004, 2:05pm
My gift to Clusterville this year is that I have been working hard on the convention for 2005.

Pending confirmation on the dates and a signed contract this information MAY be subject to changes

Proposed dates:  July 15, 16 and 17 2005...I am awaiting the fine print  from the hotel to finalize the dates.

The hotel is the Crown Plaza Hotel North Dallas-Addison

The Rack Rates are normally $149.00 a night, however our rates will be only $69.00 a night  ;;D

DO NOT CALL TO SET YOUR RESERVATIONS YET
details still need to be worked out...I will let you know A.S.A.P. when you can start calling.
Here is a link to the hotel:

http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/cp/1/en/hd/dalad?irs=null


I have requested that our hospitality suite is one that is accessible from the pool  and the Texas sized Jacuzzi areas ;;D.


I have located an oxygen company near the hotel where people can order oxygen  for use at the hotel.

LINCARE INC
Durable Medical Equipment
(972)478-2882
2554 TARPLEY RD
CARROLLTON, TX 75006

We may have a special deal in the works with this company (Thank you Linda Howell).

I have arranged for a Texas licensed daycare provider to provide on site daycare (for a fee of course to be paid by the individual parents) to provide babysitting services if needed/requested.  Contact me if you are in need of these services.

Dear Donna,

I apologize for the typo.  I moved the dinner to Saturday, July 16,
2005.

We have designated Smoking Rooms and public areas throughout the hotel.

In addition, we do have a Hospitality Suite with pool access.

Please let me know when you might be able to come by the hotel.

Please bring as many questions as you can. Ha!

At your service,

Lincare is a good one to use.  They are in network with most insurance plans.  You can call your insurance company to verify if they are in network for your plan!

ps - Donna send me a PM with your phone # again - I accidentally deleted everything in my inbox!!

Wow, how very cool!!  I gather this is an annual thing, and it moves around from year to year?  

I definitley have to put this on my list of priorities.  Before I found this place I felt like no one really understood... and then here is this wonderful community and you all understand.  What a huge blessing.  

I don't think this year is a possibility for me, but what is this I read about Phx in 2006?

Can't make it but am so looking forward to meeting some other time.  I am the shy and quiet type so on here I tend to only type when in pain so I sound like a whinner.  I want to get to know you all and let you see that I don't always complain.  

Wish I could be there......Kim

 Having had 5 sons, I know how important it is for them to think their parent gets a hard time from someone once and awhile.   Just trying to make your son happy is all.   ;;D
