Hi-
Just dropping a note to say that I went with Elspeth to the meeting with =
the
Capclave hotel. As her Padawan Learner/Apprentice , I was mostly absorbing
information for next year. However.

Elspeth is trying to finalize the details of getting the additional =
function
space for this year, and to start nailing down the contract for next =
year.
And has a major problem: only 12 people have reserved rooms for this year. =
 Of
those, Elspeth is the only WSFA member.

So, as a personal favor, and as a way to make Elspeth's life easier, will
everyone please make their Capclave hotel reservations this week? It's =
simple,
and can _easily_ be taken care of before Worldcon. You know you want to.

And it will save WSFA a ton of money if we make our room block

The information:

  Capclave 2002
  October 18-20, 2002
  Hilton Silver Spring (Silver Spring Metro!)
  Rooms $89 a night
  Suites $119 a night (less than a regular room for Balticon)
  Call 301-589-5200 to make reservations. Use the code "CAPCLAVE" to get =
the
convention rate.

Alternately: Make reservations online from http://www.wsfa.org
Use the code CAP

Elizabeth.  Begging and pleading so Elspeth doesn't have to. Because it
wouldn't be pretty
