ByTheSea 2016

Venue
We'll be back at the Seawall Motel in Southwest Harbor, Maine. www.SeawallMotel.com

The room rate in 2015 was $85 US per night (plus tax) We're still checking on what the rate will be this year. They have single and double rooms. if you want a single room, speak up quickly, as there aren't very many of those.

When
October 20th - October 22th, 2016: Plan on arriving by Wednesday, Oct 19th.

Notice that the timing is a bit different this year.

Ron, Scott and Jim will be arriving on Saturday, Oct 15th and staying until the following Saturday (Oct 22). Officially, BTS will be all day Thursday and Friday (Instead of Friday and Saturday like previous years).

Attendees should feel free to join us any time from the 15th on, but we'd like the bulk of the people to try to be there by Wednesday after/evening (Oct 19th).
