Updated Hotel
Due to circumstances beyond our control the host hotel for the Spring SRC had to be changed
Below is the link to the new host hotel, all reservations will need to re-done at the new hotel. You may use the link or call the hotel. You must ask for the GROUP RATE CODE BKL for the $70 a night rate, total with tax $80.50 a night. We have a back up hotel and I will get that information out once it is solidified.
Holiday Inn Sarasota Bradenton Airport
8009 15th Street E (old 301)
Sarasota, FL. 34243
941-355-9000
Over Flow Hotel
The back up hotel is the Hampton Inn Sarasota / Bradenton airport
975 University Pkwy Sarasota Fl 34243 call 1- 941-355-8140 or reservation on website @ www.hamptoninnsrqairport.com mention Blue Knights conference.
The rate is the same for both hotels $70 with tax $80.50 this will include the house breakfast every morning 6 - 9 AM at the Hampton Inn. The outdoor pool is heated, an exercise room, plenty of parking a shuttle service is going to be provided between both hotels. The presidents meeting will need to be at the Hampton Inn meeting room. Both hotels are smoke free and green buildings. Smoking is permitted out doors at both properties. The room assignment's will be handled by the room manager at the Holiday Inn if the requested doubles are not able to be accommodated at the Holiday inn we may need to move you to the Hampton Inn. We will keep chapters together as necessary and possible. Again Florida XVIII apologizes for any inconveniences that this change has made.
