We are intending to go to the Ohio Valley Filk Fest, which this year will be held October 20-22, in Columbus, Ohio. It seems, though, that everyone likes that weekend. The Quarterhorse Congress is there as well, an event that traditionally fills every hotel in the area. Then to add to the congestion, there’s a home football game. So the con website recommends making hotel reservations as soon as possible.
So ok, I made mine today, three months in advance…and barely got in. The reservations clerk said they had less than a dozen rooms left for that weekend, and it’s not even August yet. We’re all set, but anyone out there who’s intending to go, get on it quickly or there won’t be any place to stay.
