Hullo, folks, and welcome to the first Bash mail.  =3D]  I know I'm =
running a bit behind on this, and it was supposed to be out a week ago, =
but what can I say...I've been rather busy.  =3D]  Hopefully you'll =
forgive the delay, and get on with making your Bash plans!

To recap, we'll be meeting July 24th-28th, in Seattle, WA.  The hotel =
we'll be staying at has finally been confirmed and guaranteed, and is =
the Westcoast Bellevue, in Bellevue, Washington.  It's about fifteen =
minutes from downtown, and can be found (if just barely) on the web.

I've calculated all the room cost variables with tax, and list them for =
you below - makes it easier than guessing what it'll be after tax is =
added and all that.

Also, as far as room rates and such go, this is when you need to start =
considering whether or not you'll need a roommate.  If you have somebody =
in mind who is also planning to attend, fantastic.  If not, let me =
know...I'll be keeping a list, and trying to put people in contact with =
one another to see if it might work for ya.  Just let me know your name, =
contact info, age and sex, and I'll see if I can't find somebody to help =
you cut costs.

The "fee" for the Bash has been set - there will be a $60 charge for all =
attendees, and will be used to cover the food expenses for the reception =
and banquet, as well as pay for the requisite meeting space.  =
Information on sending in the fee will be provided at a later date, =
after I've taken care of a bit of administrativa.


Single bed, single occupancy:  $99 per night ($113.25 with tax, $453.02 =
total.)

Two beds, double occupancy:  $109 per night ($124.69 with tax, $498.78 =
total.)
                                                Per person:   $62.35 per =
night, $249.39 total

Two beds, triple occupancy:  $119 per night ($136.13 with tax, $544.52 =
total.)
                                              Per person:   $45.38 per =
night, $181.50 total.

Two beds, quad occupancy:  $129 per night ($147.57 with tax, $590.28 =
total.)
                                               Per person:   $36.90 per =
night, $147.59 total.

And, should you care for a suite, it's $149 per night ($170.45 with tax, =
$681.82 total); suites are double occupancy with a king bed.

When you plan to make a reservation, email me with your name and contact =
information so I can add you to my verification list, and I'll respond =
with the appropriate information to contact the hotel.  I do this =
because my list needs to match the hotel's at all times - they will be =
emailing me weekly reservation lists, and if they give me a reservation =
that I've got no matching information for and cannot easily verify, that =
reservation will be dropped.

Space is at a premium - we've chosen a rather busy weekend for Seattle.  =
Therefore, time is of the essence.  The sooner I know how many people =
I'm going to have, the better I can ensure that the hotel is able to =
meet our needs, before they run out of rooms.  =3D]

That's all the information I've got for you at the moment.  Please don't =
hesitate to contact me if you have any questions - I will do my best to =
answer them swiftly and accurately.

Thanks for your interest in Barliman's Bash, and I hope to see you all =
in Seattle!

At your service,

Curunir
