Hey everyone! This thread is for people to talk about traveling to the hotel (carpooling, etc) and to talk about getting rooms at the hotel. We have blocked off some sleeping rooms and while everyone can of course book a room just for themselves and whoever they may be attending with, we also suggest getting roommates to defer the cost of the hotel room for two nights. Each room we've blocked off sleeps four (king or two double beds) so feel free to get to know other people that are coming to the Con and make some friends!! If you have any questions about the hotel as it pertains to BrittanaCon, please email BrittanaConvention@gmail.com. To note, there IS a shuttle that runs from the Richmond airport to the hotel and the hotel runs a shuttle 24 hours a day that will go anywhere in a 3 mile radius. :-) However you plan on getting to the Con, we're looking forward to seeing you there!!

Gnome plans on driving from Atlanta, GA to Richmond. Will depart early Thursday, 07AUG14, with intentions of arriving that afternoon. If you find yourself between these two cities and don't mind showing up to the thing a day early, Gnome is open to picking up 1 or 2 passengers who are BrittanaCon bound. Googlemap it if you're interested and let a gnome know.

Hey gnome, just a little out of the way. Wanna stop up here in Canada on your way?

For those of you that are registered or plan on attending (and of course, have joined the message boards LOL), when do you plan on arriving? As it stands now, I know that myself (crammit/allthrumyribs) and Mama U/nayas-sports-bra and Gorshenin/Gnome will be there on Thursday to help get things together. I was just wondering if those of you getting in on Thursday would be interested in going to dinner on Thursday night? :-)

So I'm still trying to sort out the financials of if I can go or not. Anyone wanna share a room? I'd be happy to share with however many people to break down costs. I need to get an idea of that before I can make final decisions.
Also Gnome- would you be driving through/by NC?

Lucky *bleeps* living on the east coast. Lol joking. Kinda. Maybe not so much.
Seriously hope my other work trip corresponds to Brittanacon or I may not be going.
Fingers crossed!

I'll probably take 85 to Charlotte and then Greensboro but taking 95 through Fayetteville and then up the rest of the state to Richmond wouldn't take me too far out of my way if you're on the east side of the state.

I'm going to be driving down from New Jersey and plan arriving on the 7th. I'd love to go to dinner! I can also grab someone on the way down. As it is right now I'll have space for 4 people in my car. I'm also open to rooming with someone if they're having trouble with finances and such.

I still haven't confirmed that I can do it and register, BUT if I can make it all work out I'd be interesting in rooming if you're up for it. I'll let you know soon as I need to figure it out asap.

Hey y'all!
So I have a bit of a situation. I'm booked for two nights right now (Friday and Saturday) in a room with 2 double beds. I decided to come down Thursday night by train, but our block is full for Thursday night. Anyone willing to let me crash Thursday evening?
Semi-related: I'm also down to share the room I have booked on Friday and Saturday night!
And I'm totally down for dinner on Thursday night too!! So excited to see everyone!!
-Nic

Hey guys! So I'm still looking for someone to room with for Friday and Saturday, and I've emailed the ladies to let them know, but it looks like I'm probably hitching a ride with Gnome up on Thursday so I may need to find someone to crash with that night. I'm gonna see what I hear back about the other nights, but that's one issue I can think of I'll need to sort out.

Hey y'all! I'm a bit of a procrastinator and still haven't figured out the hotel thing. Does anyone still have space in their hotel room for Friday and Saturday nights?
