To
RSVP, it is a 2 step process. Since the hotel does not share
the information with us until the night of the party, there are
basically two different lists. Theirs and ours. If you plan
on staying at the hotel please complete both steps. If you are not
staying at the hotel just skip to step 2.
Step 1. Hotel
Reservations:
Reserving rooms at the hotel. Just call the hotel
once you RSVP.
The Hotel info will be sent to you via
email once we confirm your information.
We
can not stress enough how important it is to make your reservations well
in advance
and to tell the hotel you are a Virginia Friends member
.
Failure to do so will not get you the special rate.
Unfortunately
the hotel makes their own rules. We negotiate the $79.00 price
only to people that pay their reservations early. The hotel
makes the decision on when that cut off date is. It changes
from month to month depending on the vacancy rate. They are
more lenient in the Winter but summer you can expect greater advance
reservation times. Generally we recommend that you secure you
reservations with a valid credit card at least 7 days before the social.
If
you do not tell the hotel you are a club member when you call they
have no way of knowing. It is YOUR
responsibility to inform the hotel of your membership.
Walk-ins
must also inform the hotel they will be
attending
the VAF function to receive the room discount ( if any )but will stand a much
greater chance of not being assigned to the club floor or receiving a
discount. VAF does not run the
hotel and has no control over rates.
Mention any special requests or needs at the same time you make
reservations. Don't forget to ask for your confirmation
number. Not only will it make things go smoothly when you check in, you
will need this number when you RSVP if you plan on staying overnight. The hotel will
do everything to the best of their ability to honor special requests such
as non-smoking rooms, king size beds, etc...but can
not make a 100% guarantee . Also remember that:
1.
Room assignments are not made until the Thursday prior to the party. Rooms on
the club floor are assigned on a first come first serve basis with
priority given to couples staying both nights. Once
the second floor is filled, all over flow will be moved to the 1st floor.
2.
The
hotel is often booked solid during club events. Hotel reservations can be
made 52 weeks in advance.
Do
not try and wait until the week of the party you wish to attend before
making your reservations. If you wish to attend a social that is coming
up soon, and stay at the hotel during the social, PLEASE get your reservations in ASAP!!! Major credit cards are accepted
to reserve rooms.
Step 2. RSVP
for the Event:
When
you RSVP to a club event it does not
guarantee you a room at the hotel. However by doing so it will
help to expedite things when you registration at the event (not the
hotel). We will enter your information into our system to make
things faster when you get there.
Please submit your information by clicking
on the RSVP
button below.
Make sure you read carefully and
submit all required information requested. Due to the amount of RSVPs and questions we receive we are unable to
personally confirm every RSVP. However
we do have an automated response system and you should receive a reply.
If you do not receive a reply within 12 hours please resubmit it.
Also Make sure you have your spam filter turned off. Any
RSVP done after 7:00PM the Thursday before the social will not
considered to be an RSVP and you will be required to pay the full
social price at the door.
We are sorry to announce that PayPal is no longer accepting payments
thru them.
