Hey all, Our block of rooms at the hotel has been filled, to the best of my knowledge. HOWEVER, you can still call them and tell them you're with the Fruhead Convention, and see if they'll give you the same cool rate! Can't guarantee you that they will, but they've done that for a few people already. And here's the Good Part: Every room that gets booked with the Fruhead Convention gets us $10 off the ballroom rental!! This is NOT a guilt-trip aimed towards those of you who aren't staying at the Ramada. But, hey, it's another incentive. The cheaper the ballroom, the better for FruCon.
