Here is the list I have. These are NOT official hotels...just a Springfield Toursim map. Comfort Suites 5 miles Country Inn 6 miles Couryard By marriott - 3 miles Days Inn - 5 miles Fairfield Inn 6 miles Hampton Inn 5 miles Holiday Inn 5 miles Ramada - 5 miles Red Roof Inn 5 miles Super 8 - 5 miles Cindy www.cinosamgsd.com --- On Sat, 11/15/08, Terry Cochran <fairway97045@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Terry Cochran <fairway97045@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Las Vegas National To: Showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, rivendellj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx, cinosamgsd@xxxxxxxxx Date: Saturday, November 15, 2008, 11:16 AM Ok will will go check it out. 25 mile drive to a hotel is not acceptable I don't believe. That would be a 50 mile round trip per day. That may be what they were talking about. If that is the case then it is 10 more miles than they thought.

There are at least 10 hotels within a 6 mile drive. I saw the post last week from someone that said there was only one hotel within 40 miles. Considering Dayton is only 25 miles away.....I'd say that was the rumor mill in full swing.

Is everyone showing up in and RV? You know what really bugs me about this is that when we ask questions about the requirements for a national location we never get firm guidelines. It seems that they are more or less made up at the desire of the person doing the choosing. SO Is sod a requirement? How many rooms need to be dog friendly? How many RV sites are there needed and do they need to be on the show site? Does the PC get a kick back from renting RV spots or does it help off set the cost of the facility? How much can the PC afford? Are banquet facilities required on the site?
