Ok gals, I helped Susan out and called the Best Western we are staying at this AM and blocked some rooms for us. Details are... Best Western Columbus North 888 E. Dublin-Granville Road, Columbus 614-888-8230 15 rooms blocked $59 a night all 2 double beds room type Free Continental Breakfast 9/3 - 9/6 Under my name Adrienne Bievenue AND Unomas21 Sooooooo I have made MY reservations... and now you all are next!!!! We can downsize the rooms, down from 15 to 10 or so if we need it, but I didn't know how many to block. So I would like to use this thread for all who are lurking and posting to post up and say if you are going... so we can get a count. If you are too busy to post, email me sometime soon at momof3oneds@sbcglobal.net. K? I have 48 hours BEFORE Sept 3 to cancel some rooms.. so I NEED to know if we only need 10 or so... or I will be CHARGED! Also, they DO have King rooms but I didn't know if we needed any of those so I just got the 2 doubles a room. They also have cribs avail, I think I read that, AND if needed, you can try to request a room with a micro and fridge. They CAN NOT gaurantee you get them though. I already requested them in mine. But not all rooms will come with it. They will let us use the micro that they use in the continental breakfast if needed. (I have personally done this many times for Russell since it's vital we have one for him on vacations. ) And for all your pool go-ers that care.. the INDOOR pool is heated, the outdoor one is not. There is a game room and a fitness room (where the indoor pool is located). Also, there IS an mexican restaurant ON SITE. So.. Please post up if you are going and need a room! Hugs! A.

Unfortunately it looks like we will not be able to make it. Bernie really wants to do a trip to visit his sister in Memphis this fall and we would not be able to swing both trips. I swear, one of these times it will work out for us and we will be going! I hope you guys have a great time and I can't wait to hear all about it. Mary L.

I will be there. There will probably be 6 of us, 7 if we bring Evan. I will only be staying one night (two is a definite possiblity) but Columbus is close enough to do a day trip if I get the notion.

Dumb question for you guys....if we live in Columbus, can we meet you at the hotel to "hang" at the pool, or do we need to book a room to use the pool? I know it is stupid, but the hotel is only 10-15 mins from us. Oh, we did the Wyandot Lake thing today....big mistake. For 1 adult, a 10 yr old, 8 yr old, 4 yr old, and free infant...$93.00. Freakin ridiculous. I hadn't gone since 2002 and was floored. Add $3.00 parking and snacks/drinks and it is $125.00. I almost died, but we were at the window and there to meet friends....also promised my daughter we would go because she is 11 tomorrow...yikes. Anyway, sorry to vent about money, but definately let us know about the hotel hang out deal. Thanks. I can't wait to meet you all.

Deanna, Not a stupid question at all....but DEFINITELY plan to just hang out with us any time we are at the pool! I would not even consider booking a room in the same town. There will be so many of us paying for rooms.....those of you who live there need to just SWIM and enjoy!!! Looking forward to meeting you!!! Susan

We too live in Columbus/Dublin and may be 30 min from the hotel, so we plan to meet you there or at some other places.
Guys, do you plan to go some where or you think you will stay all 3 days at the hotel's pool?
Deanna, Wyandot Lake was a big mistake for us too sometime ago.

Alice, We do a lot of hanging out at the pool, but we also have a picnic one day that we are there. Usually, that is on a Saturday, and we hope to find a picnic that is big enough and has enough playground equipment that the kids can play for HOURS there. One year, I brought Tball stuff and the kids played a game........that was the year it was incredibly HOT and we had enough chicken to feed an army.
Would Sunday be a good day for people who want to go to the zoo (or somewhere like that) to do that? I'm not sure about our family yet......right now, we are a bit LOW on the cash flow!! But in a month, maybe we'll want to do something touristy!
To those of you who live in the Columbus area.......is there anything to do there that is REALLY reasonable that our kids would love???? Sounds like the water park at the lake is OUT of the question. We have gone to Chuck E. Cheese's before and enjoyed that. Is there a JEEPERS there? That is even more fun than Chuck E'S!
Susan
