I'll be at the Super 8, if you can stand the smoke. I may or may not have a local roomie, though.

Nope, can't handle smoke. Burns my eyes and is not good on electronics.

OK, Im gonna most likely stay at the Super 8 again. cost wise it makes sense. But i have to be there 3 days before the comp to help out.

Toyo, R2j, MThead, BMuzzy, BriansBodies, Bowtie, are coming that I know of. I dont believe any of them smoke. I am awaiting to hear from them because i was gonna book 2 rooms at the 8 for 4 people to stay.

More if I hear more.

OK, Here is what I have so far.

Up to 4 people per room. The price at Super 8 is $65.00 + tax
The tax is more of a visitors vacation tax. I think its like $4.00 from the last time I stayed last year.

Now I am gonna call the manager tomorrow and see if I can get a discount for groups. Most likely I would need to get 8-10 rooms booked.

Now these are not awesome rooms, but they are safe, clean and there is hot water.

My main concern is that everyone can get rooms for the event because there is also a state highschool event going on the same time which is why a lot of the hotels are getting booked.

I'll post here when I find out more.

As Norm said, be sure to book ASAP because that time of year the hotels fill quick, I also believe the legislature is back in session this year and might be booking up rooms too!

It looks like Patrick (Locked Up) and I are making the trip from Austin this year! So we would like to get a room booked ASAP. Is this the Super 8 y'all are staying at:

Super 8 Helena
2201 11th Avenue
Helena, MT 59601-4843
(406) 443-2450

Norm, please let us know if you work a group discount!

Thanks!! I hadn't seen that thread yet.

I booked a room at the Super 8. I guess I'll keep it unless everyone is staying elsewhere?
