[Kcup] [Fot] Kas Cup 2011

[John Frymark]

I did not negotiate for free guest rooms. I did ask for private  
reception rooms and that is pending "satisfactory bookings". I  
negotiated for lowest room price with cancelation option (48 hrs prior).

We have 75 rooms in our block for monday, tuesday, and wednesday  
nights. We have 5 rooms reserved after 1 month and Jeff Snook accounts  
for 2 of them. I think we need to encourage bookings from all quarters  
to show management that we are legit. I will go to my contact and ask  
for a free VIP guest room  and hope we start generating momentum in  
reservations.

John Nikas said we had some BMW sponsorship $. I don't know if those  
funds are committed to VIP.
