Gord,

You don't have to buy the rooms, you only make the arrangements for the group rate, it's up to the individuals to actually reserve/purchase the rooms. The minimum is 10 rooms and I don't think you'd have an issue doing that. Here's the contact info:

I called the AVI and they have a new policy. instead of 10 rooms for a discount you have to book 15 rooms and I had to put up a $250.00 deposit to do it. The rates are thursday Aug 18 $26.10
Friday Aug 19 $80.10
Saturday Aug 20 $89.10
Sunday Aug 21 $26.10

Not sure if enough will be interested but Im commited to coming and if we cant get enough we have to add 10% to those prices. I will be posting a reservation code when they send it to me tomorrow

I'm still in! But "Policy"

Ask Rivertard and my son about "Policy" there...............

Not sure, but I'm willing to bet we had 30 rooms or so last time I was involved in this.

They claim big changes have been made and people who booked 10 rooms would only sell 6 so hence the new policy. also the name Skip gave me for a contact no longer is with the Avi
