Discount at Fontana Village...
Alright guys.. after about an hour on the phone, I have locked down a price at Fontana Village...
All the rooms and cabins are 25% OFF from their Peak season rate.
http://www.fontanavillage.com/accomm...mmodations.htm
You must call them and let them know you are part of the, "Deals Gap Rotary Rally" or "Mazda Rotaries @ Deals Gap".
Fontana Village is going thru some major renovations and the increase in price is direct results of it...
Tenatively, Saturday night banquet dinner will be more than last year.. $15 per person.
If you reserve a room or cabin, please post here.
Also, rooms and cabins will be only held for couple of months. There are 2 other small groups that will be staying at Fontana Village. Luckily both groups are non-car oriented groups. But you never know what other groups might reserve the last.. So, please book your rooms asap!!!
Thank you!
PHILIP SOHN
Organizer of DGRR
PS. If you are planning to stay somewhere, please let me know or please reconsider as more people we have at Fontana better it is next year and better service we will recieve...

I received an email from the manager of Fontana Village after founding out some people were having problems reserving a room..
This is what the manager wrote me:
So, please let them know that you are part of "Mazda Rotaries @ Deals Gap". If you have problem reserving a room, please get the person's name and let me know.
All rooms and cabins are first come first... Please book them asap and don't wait until the end.
This is what the manager wrote me:
Philip, my apologies! The group block is in the system and there is still availability. It must have been an individual's error and I DO apologize. During the winter months we are down to a skeleton crew and using staff in many capacities. The only other possible explanation is that perhaps your member did not identify the group they were with in a manner that is not listed in the system? ...Mazda Rotaries @ Deals Gap. I have contacted the front desk and requested them to be sure all staff is briefed.
All rooms and cabins are first come first... Please book them asap and don't wait until the end.

Is it April yet!!!?
Do most people stay at Fontana's? When I went to Rotary Rev in 2005 we had a ton of people in our suite hanging out. Is it like that there? I called today and if most people are staying there, we are getting a 3 bedroom cabin. Price's are good, I just need to know if this will be the center of things.
Phil, if you want to to organize the caravan from the NE, I can do that. Just let me know.

Moejoe,
Fontana Village will be where I would like everyone to stay at.. Make sure when you book the cabin, tell them you are part of "Mazda Rotary @ Deals Gap".
And if you could start a thread about DGRR in NE section, that would be great!!

I'll start the thread now.
I told them I was part of the Mazda rotary group and the discount is 25% off on the cabin I'm looking at. I say that's awesome. Better than what I get with my military and AAA combined. haha. Nice work on getting that hook up Phil.

I reserved mine just now. I am staying in the Laurel unit checking in on Friday and checking out on Sunday. It's like $90 a night after the discount and that is for a 2 bedroom cabin fully furnished. Now I just have to make sure I get on this paint job so I can drive the FD up.

Carson,
I think until march.. then its first come first.
aws140.. What I hear is that they have completely renovated all the cabins and such. If you don't like it when you get there, please go tell them asap and ask them to move you to a different location. If its not up to your satisfaction, let me know and I will complain and get something done for you. I know last year couple of people weren't happy and I demanded that they recieve a discount. I believe Fontana gave them additional 20%. But this was after they moved to a new cabin. Don't hesitate to complain if its not to your standard!
This is another reason why more people stay at Fontana, better pull I'll have. No one wants to loose 20 rooms for 2 days. If you stay somewhere else, no way I could help.

Just reserved the Lodge Room for April 18-22. 
SO excited now. omg...
PS- For those of you who may not have a place to stay yet, you are more than welcome to stay in our room and split the cost. We have one other bed, and plenty of floor space if you want to bring a sleeping bag or cot. We can cram in there if need be.
I do ask that people stay in our room who I know... I can't stay in a room with a stranger. Rotorhead or not.

Reservations have been REALLY picking up, so it should be a great event!!!! Generally speaking, the cabins are just about gone completely! We still have a few 1 bedroom Willow cabins available and we also have several lodge rooms available. The lodge rooms come with either 1 king size bed or 2 queen size beds for the same rate. Just a thought too.....if some of your folks have booked a 2 or 3 bedroom cabin for just 1 couple, they may want to split the accommodations with some friends.
Anyway, let me know if you have any questions. Remember, be sure to identify yourself as part of the Mazda Rotaries in order to receive the 25% discounted rates!
See you soon!

Damn it, I've been off line and busy. Just got a 2 bedroom cabin, last one I think. She said they have 5 one bedrooms still and some motel rooms off site (I think?). I think she said the have a few of some other type of lodging, but it was hard to make out what she was saying. It didn't sound like more then 10 openings though. I'm in though. See you guys there.

LOL... everytime it looks like the cabins are gone someone jumps on here and says they've snagged one. I guess there must be some cancellations going on.
