Parent's Lawyers and Best Friends have a Condo in Key West...
My Aunt owns a cottage (2 bedroom) in Combermere, Ontario...
Friend of the family has this cottage in northern (lower peninsula) michigan:
Main cottage has 1 king bed, 3 twin beds, 1 full bed, 1 queen bed, and I think it has a fold out too. There's a detached "guest house" which has 2 full beds, and 2 twin beds. The twin/full are bunk bed set ups. So, if people share could be up to 15 otherwise 11 people, plus next door is actually a small cottage rental company too I think. This place is near Sleeping Bear Dunes, and on Little Platte Lake (a clearwater and relatively shallow lake), it's about an hour southwest of Traverse City, and in the (not quite a) town nearby it has some of the best cherry pies in michigan (not joking, consistently rated as such every year in michigan travel magazines).
Here's the friend of the family cottage (terrible) web site:

Can just go on a group rate camping trip somewhere, I enjoy camping no matter where I go, done it here in ohio, done it in the rockies, done it in south carolina...

so... I'm up for whatever maybe I'll actually be able to go to one of these things...eventually

It was a large house and fit 24 people comfortably. Had a pool too. Not sure how much it cost, but sounds like a crazy trip. I might be interested in such a thing.

Update: Looking at pricing it seems like a good guess is $1000 a night. With 25 people splitting that's 280 for a week. We'd have to also consider food, travel and other stuff, but that sounds like a decent price for a week at the beach with other stupid people.

Yes to all of these things. I really want to see a brbu vacation pt 2 happen! Preferably camping because I love camping but I also like party houses.
I'm available most of the time now that I'm in the applying to grad school phase. (I work but if I know ahead of time I can take the time off no problemo)

Meeting Complete - Discussion Topics that were had:

  • Room Split - Very good call out by TOH, likely next year we will close off the side rooms and concentrate things in the main room, if things get too crowded, we will open the main bedroom for overflow
  • Evening out Costs - TBD, possibility of having every pay the same rate no matter what room you are staying in, would narrow suite down to 5-6 people for better sleeping conditions
  • German Restaurant - Catering possibility for next year
  • Group Cosplay - Smash is go
  • Community Fund - Eightball will no longer run, anyone want to take up the mantle?
  • Beer Tasting - To be run differently next year
[i][b]
  • Room Reservations - If you can make a reservation - CALL FREQUENTLY - If you get one, inform GroupME, text people, get the word out as we need to jump on this shit ASAP

They do have setups for larger parties so we do have that option

I've been out of the loop for a while here. Is there a regular routine I should be following at this point? Have there been any significant updates people have heard? How can we further track this?

Ive been calling the main hotel line every few days, asking for the ACEN Group and seeing if they have it up yet. I do not trust the con to announce things.

I wouldn't say there's anything formal, but maybe there should be

Reminder - Be on watch through the end of the month, August is when ACEN usually releases its first block.
