    RV Parks in the area:

    Marina Bay RV Park in Kemah This one is very nice and near to Galveston Bay and the Kemah Boardwalk, which will probably be the location of the Thursday night event, since they have "Rock the Dock Concert Series" on Thursday nights.

    Space Center RV Park This one is probably the closest to the conference location.

    Everyone is encouraged to stay in the Hilton Garden Inn (the host hotel for our event), but there are about 8 additional hotels within a two mile area and dozens more within 10 miles. They range in prices and amenities.

    Do you have a listing of the other nearby hotels? Kinda want to shop around for some cheaper pricing. Also wondering if anyone is taking their spouse. Maybe we could team them up while carvoholics are in workshops? Just sayin....

    Baybrook mall is across the freeway on bay area blvd. Lots of shopping plus space center, kemah, Galveston etc.

    La Quinta and Hampton inn are across the street holiday inn and more right there. Try a mapquest search of Hilton G. Inn then search hotel zoomed into HGI location. Each should have weblink and phone #.

    OK...... just made my hotel reservation at the Days Inn and Suites which I understand is close to the Hilton Garden Inn. Rate was a little better.. $55. Now need to figure out whether to drive or fly. Flying is actually cheaper than driving right now. Need to start practicing with the Video camera now.... : )

    Motel 6 $39.00 a night and you can get a AARP discount. It is five blocks away fron the Hilton.

    Rather then driving back and forth from Conroe to Houston & Houston to Conroe, I am going to stay at the motel which will also save gas money.

    Looking forward to this conference and meeting all of you that are coming.
    Happy Carving
