Kim, the manager at the Blackhorse gave us a block of 10 rooms @ $65.49 per night, including tax. I booked mine for Thursday, April 28, Friday, the 29th and Saturday the 30th, with a checkout on Sunday, May 1st.

 

So, we are off to the races; please book your rooms as soon as possible and tell 'em this is for Botstock!

Most, if not all, rooms have two beds, so double up.

 

I am in the process of getting reservations at the Black Horse tavern for a dinner Thursday night, and Friday night, as well as reserving the downstairs room at the Park Place Diner for Saturday night....more to follow.

NOTE: for you "go getter's", remember, The Kutztown Renninger's show opens officially on Thursday, 28 April at 10AM, so, if you've got enough Moxie, go for it!!

I've just returned from The Park Place Diner. The downstairs dining room is now reserved for us:

Saturday, April 30th, 2016 at 6:00 PM. Off the menu items for your dining pleasure, 6% sales tax, and 20% gratuity included.

Let us know if you'll be attending so a final head count can be given.

"Raffle" and SWAG items graciously accepted (but not mandatory).

One more thing to begin thinking about:

The Official BotStock XIII Poster Contest.

Great response folks, but there are more out there; don't hesitate, you'll miss out on a great Botstock!

 

Additionally, the Friday, April 29th, opening night dinner at the Black Horse Tavern is reserved for 6PM...yummy!

For any newcomers, here's a hint of what CAN go on at Botstock!

Now there's another perfect reason to attend Botstock!  Not to mention, camaraderie, seeing amazing collections, great fun, food and the possibility of discovering that rare item(or better yet, building it!).
