zedsdead Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 just a reminder to anyone even considering they might attend and will need a hotel to make a reservation at the hilton garden inn. Columbus day is popular in this area with weddings and fall foliage watchers so rooms wont last long. The block of rooms is limited due to this. hotels have 24-48 hr cancellations so if you choose not to attend there is little chance of getting stuck with a room you wont be using. http://hiltongardeninn.hilton.com/en/gi/ho...ctyhocn=HPNNAGI Also more info coming regarding the team tournament packet and gaming schedules -ed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225499-update-106-spots-open-2011-bfsgt-oct-7-9-ny/#findComment-2869608 Share on other sites More sharing options...
