Pocono Manor; Out of Rooms for RAID: I went up there Tuesday and scoped the place out.
Today I reserved a room at the "new" Comfort Inn & Suites, a Single King (obviously befitting of me stature), for Friday July 7th and Saturday 8th, checking out Sunday, $129/day. It's no Pocono Manor Resort, but it's 1 (one) mile away on Rt940 just at Rt314 where the RAID venue is being held. They have 2 like rooms left, for anyone who wants to grab them. Pool, workout, and continental breakfast.
There is also a more resort-like Holiday Inn Express down 940 (East) and up 611 (North) off on a side parallel road, that is a few miles away, same price range according to the Web. I saw the signs when I was up there on recon. Pool, sauna, whirl, workout, continental breakfast, etc.

For you late as possible planners, like me, you can still hook up and attend this event in our back yard. Don't forget to mail in your RAT RAID Registration Form with the CCard# or Check for $50/person.
And there's more places and rooms in the area.
