Ok can someone on site pick a bar. I hope this hotel has only 1 bar. The hotel casino in Vegas has multiple.

I think it was different bars in different hotels.  Let them know exactly where you will be.

I'm pretty sure there is only one bar in the host hotel (Embassy Suites), the one I see is just behind the lobby on the first floor.  You see it when you walk in to the hotel. 

There are always a lot of people milling around it, how shall we identify ourselves as the forum group?

I'll look around to see if I can ID a specific area to meet.

Everyone could wear a green ribbon to signify how much money we spend on the cars?
Just a thought....

FYI

There is a backup hotel as well listed for this GN, Courtyard by Marriott in San Marcos so there could be some folks booked at this one.  ???

So, to clarify, meet up at the bar in Embassy Suites or Courtyard?

I assumed we'd meet at Embassy since all the goings on are there.

What say you?

I haven't been to a GN in 30 years, but I kinda assumed all participants would be expected to sign in and and would receive a name tag.  This would serve as identification.

Yes, we've signed in and have name tags, but not all Cadillac aficionados peruse and contribute to the forum.  We (I assume) wanted to get all the forum users together for a tasty beverage and healthy Cadillac related discussion.  Much like the '63 & '64 split off and get together.  I'll call it a sub-group of the GN.

At the Embassy Suites, they have happy hour (free drinks) from 5:30 to 7:30.  I suggest to start at 7 or 7:30 to let the house buy the first round.

There is a rather large green sculpture (aged copper) in the bar area, there is a stand up area around that, with the actual bar very close by.  Suggest we mill around there until most show up.  There are tall tables (a few) we can use to sit at...

OK- Friday evening, 7-7:30, Embassy Suites bar, near green sculpture.  I'm scheduled to attend the judge's meeting from 3-6:00, but will be at the bar after I get dinner.

A number of years ago when the Cadillac Mailing List was active we made up stickers to put on our badges to identify ourselves to each other.  Kind of late for that in this case, but something to keep in mind for next year.

Good idea to try to meet.

I have judges meeting & also tix to the BBQ & band party that night.  How many others are going there?  If enough, we could try to grab a couple tables together.

Directions to the Embassy Suites bar is as you enter the front of the hotel, go slightly left about sixty feet  (the hotel registration desk will be on your right)  As you come into the hotel the elevators will be on the right of the bar.  The hotel's manager's special for hotel guests (free drinks) is from 5:30 to 7:30 in the open dining area behind the bar.  I will attend if I have no other commitments.

We are at the table by the fountain.
