Fw: 2011 SACC lodging update

Sat Jan 22 18:02:19 UTC 2011

Aloha all,
When I received lodging confirmation from the Squaw Creek Casino Hotel it 
indicated their "regular" rate. A phone call and email got the situation 
sorted out and the "conference rate" applied.

Y'all might want to double-check the rates when making reservations.

Looking forward to seeing you all in White Cloud in June.

Mark:
You may want to share this letter with the list.  Everyone should note 
that the tribal motel and the tribal cabins by the casino are under two 
separate managers.  Reservations for the cabins are made via the White 
Cloud Casino.

I have checked with Gary our manager and he confirmed he was aware of 
this. Attached is your new confirmation stating the change in price. We 
look forward to your visit. If you have any questions, just give us a 
call. Thank you, Brenda.

> Aho,
> 
> We have an exciting update regarding the 2011 Siouan and Caddoan 
Languages Conference, to be held Wednesday, June 15, through Saturday, 
June 18, 2011 at the tribal complex of the Iowa Tribe of KS and NE, which 
is located 6 miles NW of White Cloud, KS, at 3345 Thrasher Road, White 
Cloud, KS 66094 (http://www.casinowhitecloud.org/iowatribe.html).
> 
> The Iowa Tribe of KS and NE has anounced a special conference rate of 
$30 per night on rooms at the casino cabins (
http://www.casinowhitecloud.org/dining.html) and also at the Squaw Creek 
Eagles Nest Motel (http://www.casinowhitecloud.org/eaglesnest.html).
> 
> There are ONLY FOUR casino cabins (normally $60 per night), which have a 
double bed and are less than one mile from the conference location, gas 
station & convenience store, and tribal casino, which serves breakfast, 
lunch, and dinner to order in addition to lunch and dinner buffets. For 
reservations, call 785-595-3430.  Mention the Conference rate in effect. 
Note however, the cabins will be rented on a first come, first serve 
basis.  In other words, the cabins will not be held on reserve. Therefore, 
for those who are interested and have the cabins as a preference, early 
reservations are advised.
> 
> The Iowa Tribe's Eagles Nest Motel has 23 rooms (normally $50 plus $7 
per additional person per night), which have two double beds and are 20 
miles from the conference location. The tribe has a six passenger shuttle 
van that provides free transportation between the motel and the casino/ 
conference site. The motel is connected to a gas station & convenience 
store and restaurant. It is also located three miles from the scenic Squaw 
Creek National Wildlife Refuge (http://www.fws.gov/midwest/squawcreek/). 
For reservations, call 660-442-3267 or 1-866-994-1320.
> 
> Again, the special conference rate for both options is $30 per room per 
night with no extra charge for additional persons in a room.
> 
> Conference registration will take place at the conference. A $20 
conference fee will help cover associated costs (refreshments, building 
setup and cleanup, etc.).  As is customary, theoretical and comparative 
linguistics presentations will be scheduled first, and the applied and 
community linguistics presentations will follow.  While May 1, 2011,  is 
the final date to submit an abstract, it would be appreciated if those who 
are planning a presentation could let us know sooner rather than later for 
scheduling purposes.  Presentations are usually 20 minutes followed by 10 
minutes for questions and comments, but presenters with different needs 
can be accommodated if they let us know beforehand.  Presenters should 
plan to bring a sufficient supply of their various handouts.
> 
> All are invited for supper on Friday evening at the Goodtracks home near 
town at 1510 Wisconsin Street, White Cloud, KS.  Vegetarian options will 
be provided.  Those with other special diets or food allergies may be able 
to be accommodated if they let us know beforehand.  Nonalcoholic beverages 
will be provided, so if you desire, BYOB.
> 
> Please do not hesitate to send questions, comments, and presentation 
intentions, titles, and/ or abstracts to conference organizers.
> 
> Have a Happy and Blessed Holidays to all,
