> Greetings!  This is an update regarding Blackstone Raid.
>
> His Highness has requested the support of Atlantia in making a  
> showing at this war between the Midrealm and Aethelmark.  As the  
> Expeditionary Corps, we're trying to help coordinate transportation,  
> hotel, and meals, so that as many people as possible can attend.
>
> Blackstone Raid will be held at the Cedar Lakes Conference Center in  
> Ripley, West Virginia from April 24th-27th.  www.cedarlakes.com
>
> More information on the event itself can be found at http://www.blackstoneraid.org/
>
> For those who are interested in traveling together, we will be  
> arranging a caravan to leave our area on Friday the 25th at 6:00  
> p.m, and arrive at our destination just shy of midnight.  The meet- 
> up location is Lemon Road Elementary School (7230 Idylwood Road,  
> Falls Church), which is the same place that the Ponte Alto Sunday  
> Social normally takes place.
>
> We can arrange a secondary highway-friendly location in Stierbach to  
> meet people, should there be sufficient demand.
>
> Regardless of your interest in caravanning, if you have room in your  
> vehicle for an extra person, or if you will need a ride to the  
> event, please let me know at dreadpiratekate at gmail.com so I can  
> coordinate those who need a ride with those who have a seat.
>
> There are still rooms available on site, which include dormitory  
> bunks, less expensive motel rooms, and more expensive lodge-style  
> hotel rooms.  We are recommending that everyone stays on site, as  
> this is both the most cost-effect and most convenient option.  To  
> reserve a room, please call the Cedar Lakes Conference Center at  
> 304-372-7860.  Most rooms are at least double occupancy.  More  
> information on room styles and prices is available on their website: www.cedarlakes.com 
> .  If you are looking for a roommate and have not yet found one,  
> please let us know so we can help.
>
> Alternatively, there are a few hotels in Ripley.  Please contact me  
> if you would like more details about those.
>
> We are planning on sharing an off-board meal together on Saturday  
> evening, either in or near Ripley.  I'll send out that information  
> closer to the event date.  If anyone is familiar with the town and  
> has a restaurant recommendation, please speak up!
>
> I believe that the Logistics Corps is currently hoping to have a  
> central pavilion, water, and perhaps some snacks available for any  
> and all within the Barony to enjoy throughout the event.  We hope  
> that central location will help facilitate communication throughout  
> the weekend and ensure everything runs smoothly.
>
> For people planning to leave early Sunday morning, please join us  
> for breakfast!  This will most likely take place at 8:00 a.m. at the  
> local Bob Evans (3 Carter Point, Ripley).  If you are interested in  
> breakfast or would like to caravan back, please let me know.
>
> As noted, my email address is dreadpiratekat at gmail.com for any  
> questions or comments.  I check this throughout the day.
>
> Thanks,
