Title: Reservation Information for AMG 2015- July 30-Aug 4 Memphis
Post by: Lou-ah-vull on February 11, 2015, 04:32:41 pm: I have reserved a block of 15 rooms at the Holiday Inn Downtown in Memphis for our AMG gathering this summer. We have a guaranteed rate of $149.00 plus tax per night and for those who desire it, a $22 per night valet parking charge with in and out privileges.

The name of the group is "AMG GROUP." You also can contact the hotel directly at 1-888-300-5491.The group block is scheduled to cut off of June 30,2015. \

There is a link but I cannot figure out how to post it on here. It is a word document that opens up the web page conveniently to our group reservation. If someone can tell me how to do this, I will add this to this thread.

I made my reservation today so there are 14 rooms left. I am going to release the block as the contract specifies on June 30 if we have unreserved rooms left.

PM me if you have any questions.

Let's meet and promote our Memphis 10th Anniversary AMG!

Thanks so much for taking the bull by the horns and getting this done. I was able to go to the hotel web site in your link above, click on Reservations, which bright me to the ihg.com web site. There I could enter the group name "AMG" on the left hand side, and it showed me the "AMG group" web page with the $149 rate. From there I complete my reservation. Easy peasy!

Now all I need to get a flight to Memphis.

If you call them and ask for group sales (do this Monday, not the weekend) our rep Diedre can take care of adding your day to the reservation if you still wish to do so.

Post by: Lou-ah-vull on February 15, 2015, 01:30:40 am: That's six room reservations! Keep them coming....we need a minimum of 10 reservations by the end of June, but the earlier the better so that we can promote to the newcomers. Remember there are still nine rooms left in the block and additional rooms are available at the block price as long as they are available.

This is going to be a great event!

Well, we can all take turns waking you up during your stay - Rocky would expect it of us.

Just give us each one of your extra "twink keys" and we'll get the job done!!

Post by: phildinftlaudy on March 01, 2015, 09:22:01 am: Was so happy to spend some time with Jody yesterday and find out the AMG was happening in Memphis this year. I haven't been on the boards for a bit (no good excuse).

Will be checking my schedule of events (translation: grant projects) to see if I can attend. Summer is our slow season, so I should be able to swing it... May bring my mother along for the ride (are there casinos close by? LOL).

At any rate, if all goes well, I should be making a reservation within the next week or two.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting those that I have yet to meet in person.

Thanks Gary for securing a great hotel.

Post by: Lou-ah-vull on May 29, 2015, 01:59:43 pm: REMINDER: Our block of reserved rooms is open for one more month. At the end of June, I am going to release any unreserved rooms in the block to the hotel. If you are considering attending AMG and have not made your reservations yet, I encourage you to do so in the next 30 days. It is much more fun and convenient when we are in the same building together. We would love to have more new people attending this year.
