Before I move on I want to remind you of a couple of events at Meeting of the Minds this year. The reason I want you to participate is there will be lots of swag! FREE STUFF!! The Cornhole tournament and the Friday Night Beach Party will feature lots of … COOL PRIZES!!

The Mini Mart will be packed with vendors and lots of cool book authors! There will be almost non-stop music from the beginning of the event until the end. Be sure to sign up for MOTM Blood Drive and the Zonta Walk! Make sure you know we are still doing the Toy Drive! Don't forget your toys! Remember the Paradise Charitable Foundation Auction! There will be some really nice stuff for you to bid on and take home. Mark your calendars, there is so much to do it really is hard to do it all!

The last time I sent you a note I told you the Casa Marina was almost sold-out. Well as I write this there is still one room available. I will tell you it is a beautiful ocean view suite which is still less expensive than many rooms in Key West and it is very nice! By the time you read this it may be gone! The Reach is almost sold out as well. There are plenty of hotels and other rooms available but you need to book now!

There is a 30 day cancellation policy on the Casa Marina rooms. There may be one or two rooms cancelled at the last minute. I am going to give you the link so you can check by October 1 if you want to stay at the place where the event is happening…

When calling the Casa 888-303-5717 or 305-296-3535 to book your room we would like to remind you to be sure and use the discount code "ZZPAR4" to get the Parrot Head Rate!
