PIR 5/21/10

This to connect all of the family members who have a loved one with a PIR on May 21, 2010. Hopefully we will be able to share stories and information to help all who are in "the same boat." =)

Hotel Reservations?

I am looking at booking a hotel already. I would like a place that has a shuttle to and from PIR. How did you ladies plan so far ahead without knowing if your recruit is grad and go? Are the ways to change reservations without repercussions?

Help? Please & thank you =)

      We're driving up (18 hours eeek) and making a mini vacation out of it, so regardless of whether he's grad and go or not we'll be able to see Chicago. We're staying sort of midway between the base and downtown Chicago to make the travel back and forth much easier. I don't know what you all are planning on doing for the day of with your boys but I'm writing my husband with several "packages" that I created so he can kind of choose what he'd like to do. They are all contingent on whether or not he's grad and go of course. We're booking Thursday through Monday.

      I booked at the Holiday Inn Express. My husband is all about breakfast and they offer a full breakfast. Called them and got a cheaper rate than what is posted on the internet. They do have a shuttle to PIR.
