One more question the Hotel had was how many would be staying at the hotel.  I told them most of us would be local and not staying.  I am the only one I know of that will be.
I will be there Friday and Saturday night.  If anyone was going to stay a night at the hotel let me know.

Is the 20th firm now?  I will need to talk to my Aunt and Uncle in Hudson to see if I can stay with them, otherwise I'll be looking for a hotel.

The reservation for the room has been submitted at the Holiday Inn Express and Suites Golden Valley. I named the event "Head-fi.org Regional Meet" with me as the contact point.
It will take them 24 hours to get me a confirmation number.

In the mean time here is the summary:
We have an ~840 sq ft room that will be set-up with enough tables for 20 people, extension cords and power strips, and other misc. stuff.

We are allowed to bring food and beverages in (due to it being Saturday).

We have three king rooms blocked out for us in case anyone wants to make it a stay-cation or needs a room due to their long drive. Reservations need to be made before Aug 29th and they are to be paid for by whoever makes the reservation. First come first served for these rooms but I am sure they will have more if needed. I only knew of maybe two people that might need a room. Cost of the rooms is $112 per night. Also, please wait till I get the confirmation number to make any reservations.

Hotel Info:
Holiday Inn Express-Golden Valley
6051 Golden Hills Drive
Golden Valley, MN 55416
Phone: 763-545-8300

The meeting room is reserved for September 20th from 10am to 5pm.
Cost of the room is $200 +fees (19% set-up) and tax for a total of $240.76 (we got a discount due to me reserving a suite for my stay and the possibility of more people staying.)

I will be coming in Friday afternoon and leaving Sunday (so will be at the Hotel Friday night and Saturday night for mini pre-post-meet potentially).

Let me know if there are questions.

Is it September yet?

Thanks a lot for taking care of this. It should be a great event. Keep us updated on The Needle Doctor and if other vendors want to participate.
