As I was, I am sure most of you will be shocked at the hotel room prices for the weekend of MENA.  Apparently it is a combination of event pricing, as well as prime tourist season for leaf watching in the area.  I have looked at other hotels in the region which are farther away from the show grounds, but did not find any lower prices – other than a couple of “cheap” hotels which are not recommended, either by the local hosts or by online reviews.
 
I have been asked multiple times about which hotel will be “Massey Central” during the show.  After reviewing the amenities and online reviews in conjunction with room prices, the Clarion Inn - Airport has been selected as “Massey Central” as noted above. (It has an onsite restaurant/bar, as well as indoor and outdoor pools.)  There are really no specific Massey events planned at the hotel, but it can be a spot where Massey folks gather for evening/morning visits and social time.  Of course, which hotel you choose is totally up to each of you.  There are many, many in the general area as listed on the 3-page show flyer.
 
Any questions or concerns, please contact either me or Hunter.
