Hi All, We here in D13 are working on a deal with a developer who has built a vacation rental property in Cheney that's pretty amazing . He has completely renovated a multi-story building into a VRBO condominium kind of thing. It may have enough capacity to house the entire tournament - players, families, and umpires... we are not sure yet how many rooms are available that week and what the costs will be for it, but it APPEARS from discussions today that it will beat the heck out of any hotels in the area. It also has a very nice coffee shop/café kind of place on the ground floor that is currently not open - we may get a local restauranteur to open it for ourselves to be exclusively for Little League families, and I am currently shopping arcade games and pool tables to put in the other retails space on the lower level. It also has a self-serve laundromat... (!) Don't try to sniff it out just yet as we are working on a special rate for Little League. They have 2,3, and 4 bedroom suites in the building... If we can rent the whole thing up, then we may get a better price than you could individually. We are not completely sure what to do with it at this time, but it could be very good for the tournament folks if we can make some of this happen. If it works out we will have a pretty amazing facility to house the state tournament folks - the whole shebang. I am attaching some photos to give you the idea of what we are talking about . We are thinking this would also be a hub for several of the activities we have planned as it is close to the fields... almost within walking distance... and it may be close to other things we have planned... so stay tuned. We wanted to get this out so no one made arrangements until we had a definitive "yes or no" on if we can get this facility. I'll try to let you know tomorrow (6/3) what is going on with this --- if it works out- it would be good for everyone!
