Default Annual Meeting - Soaring Eagle
Brandy tried to book a room at the casino and found out there is a two night restriction for that weekend 3/18 - 3/20.

We ended up booking a room for Saturday night 3/19 at Baymont Inn & Suites. It is about a mile from the casino and has a free shuttle.

I thought the casino was around $150 a night and Baymont was around $100.

Yeah, but they are on the other side of town. If we can get enough people to commit, maybe we can dicker with them for a better rate.

All of the hotels in Mt Pleasant run shuttles to the Casino, plus there is a City Shuttle service that runs.

Go ahead and take the ball on the hotel rooms....

I just sent an email to the Baymont, told them that I am a Wyndham Rewards member and asked what type of rates they could give us.
I'll keep you all posted.

I logged on to Comfort Inn through KCBS and it showed $129 which is the same rate i seen on their website, so I called them and was told they don't accept the KCBS discount. The lady explained to me they are owned buy a leasing company and that not all Comfort Inn's would have the same discounts.
