I have locked down a price at Fontana Village...

All the rooms and cabins are 25% OFF from their Peak season rate (100 blocks have been set aside for us).


Goto the link below to check out their many many choices of lodging..
http://www.fontanavillage.com/accom...ommodations.htm

You must call them and let them know you are part of the, "Deals Gap Rotary Rally" or "Mazda Rotaries @ Deals Gap".

Fontana Village is going thru some major renovations and the increase in price is direct results of it... (and still they don't have cell towers ;()

Tenatively, Saturday night banquet dinner will be more than last year.. $15 per person.

If you reserve a room or cabin, please post here.

Also, rooms and cabins will be only held for couple of months. There are 2 other small groups that will be staying at Fontana Village. Luckily both groups are non-car oriented groups. But you never know what other groups might reserve the last.. So, please book your rooms asap!!!

Thank you!

PHILIP SOHN
Organizer of DGRR

PS. If you are planning to stay somewhere, please let me know or please reconsider as more people we have at Fontana better it is next year and better service we will recieve...

Reservations have been REALLY picking up, so it should be a great event!!!! Generally speaking, the cabins are just about gone completely! We still have a few 1 bedroom Willow cabins available and we also have several lodge rooms available. The lodge rooms come with either 1 king size bed or 2 queen size beds for the same rate. Just a thought too.....if some of your folks have booked a 2 or 3 bedroom cabin for just 1 couple, they may want to split the accommodations with some friends.

Anyway, let me know if you have any questions. Remember, be sure to identify yourself as part of the Mazda Rotaries in order to receive the 25% discounted rates!

See you soon!

Toni

PLEASE BOOK your ROOMs ASAP!!!
