hotels/camping Memorial day Findlay bash

[Cinder & Smoke]

Does anyone organize anything with local hotels?
Would they offer a group discount if we had a few people that would rent
a room for the weekend?

I know I mentioned camping before and if there enough people interested I will camp.
If not I will just be getting a room.

We've never had too many folks stay overnight.
Most of the Motel Chains won't offer a discount till you reserve 10 rooms -
and we've NEVER had 10 groups stay for a night!

The "less expensive" motels charge between $35 to $45 per night.
There are a few Camping Sites near Findlay - I never checked on their prices.

Do a http://www.Google.com search using "Findlay, OH" and camping or campsites.

For some reason I thought/assumed that more than 10 people came from out of town & stayed the night for the big PT bash on Memorial Day weekend. Oh well it was worth a shot I guess. lol At least I have AAA so I can get some sort of discount if I stay at a motel. lol

Do you know anything about the motels in the area?
Are the "less expensive" motels pretty decent? And do they allow dogs?

If not do you know what motels are the closest that may allow dogs that you think are nice? (I don't need a fancy/pricey motel, as long as it's clean & allows dogs I'm all set. (that is if I even stay in a motel... just waiting to hear deffinates from others)

I think Phred said 10 rooms need to be booked to receive the discount. I am sure more than 10 people go.

I have only stayed at one hotel in Findlay, and that was back in high school, and it has since changed names, so I don't really know how nice they are inside. There really aren't any "bad" areas of town though, so you don't have to worry about getting into an inner city hotel that you might feel uncomfortable in. I think Kay and her dad stayed in a hotel one year they came up, although I don't remember which one.

If you want something closer to the dog park, look for something on the east side of town, on Tiffin Avenue, further east of Main Street. Most the rest are right on I-75, and although 15-20 minutes from the dog park, it is easy to get to.

Well thanks for all the help.
Looks like I'll just wait a little bit longer to hear back from a few people to see if they know for sure if they are camping or not. If I don't hear anything too promising too soon I'll just book a hotel room for me I guess. I'll probably give it a couple more weeks then I'll book a room. I'd give it more time if I could but I know booking rooms and reserving campsites on major holiday weekends have to done well in advance.

So in case no one can/wants to camp anyone want to share a room with Kaige & I? I get AAA discount.

sue, I'm coming! if you can't remember.

phred, you never know. four of my friends thought about wanting to come along too - so that might help the ten! we still pay a little if there's ten people coming, right? without discount.

well, looks like not much will roompool with us because most of them live close to findlay park..? but anyway, I'll be able to room with or drive back.

sorry about unfinish post above!
