The location has changed, but the fun and friendship will be the same

|||
|
|
as ever. The Space Coast Area Mensa Tourist Trap RG 96 will be held
|
|||
|
|
at the Holiday Inn Cocoa Beach Oceanfront Resort, 1300 N. Atlantic
|
|||
|
|
Avenue (A1A), Cocoa Beach FL 32931. Contrary to the tourist trap
|
|||
|
|
theme, we're still holding the line on registration costs. This year's
|
|||
|
|
RG registration is the same price as 1992! Full registration is $30
|
|||
|
|
if postmarked by 30 June. Those postmarked by 30 September are $40,
|
|||
|
|
and the price goes up to $45 on 1 October. Register early to save!
|
|||
|
|
Hotel reservations may be made by calling the Holiday Inn at
|
|||
|
|
(407)7832271. Be sure to mention the Space Coast Area Mensa RG to get
|
|||
|
|
the special RG room rate of $58 per night for 1 to 4 people.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We again will be offering a meal plan consisting of a Saturday evening
|
|||
|
|
banquet and a Sunday brunch, Either meal also may be ordered
|
|||
|
|
individually. Meals must be ordered in advance so the final numbers
|
|||
|
|
can be confirmed to the hotel.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We also will be offering RG tee shirts again this year. The shirts
|
|||
|
|
will be heather gray in color with the SCAM Tourist Trap RG 96 logo.
|
|||
|
|
The tee shirts are being printed based on the advance orders received,
|
|||
|
|
so don't wait until you arrive to think about buying one. Only a few
|
|||
|
|
of these shirts will be available for purchase on site.
