> Please review the registration form for additional information 
> regarding the individual events and costs, etc..
> 
> So, here is the additional hotel information that you will need, and 
> the registration form that we will need for you to get back to us 
> sooner rather than later.
> 
> The Westin Hotel, www.westin.com, in Westminster, CO, is now ready to 
> accept reservations for our group. Our rate is $75.00 a night for a 
> room with a king bed. Call, 888-625-5144, or 303-410-5000, and make 
> your reservations (preferably before the hotel books up for Labor Day 
> weekend). Make sure to mention Audi Car Club / S-cars.org to get the 
> special rate. Contact me if you have already made reservations, and 
> we will get you into the group deal.
> 
> After you have made your reservations (if you are a local and won't 
> be staying at the hotel we still need a completed registration form), 
> please download the registration form from the following link:
> 
> http://www.s-cars.org/nationals/scarnatregister.doc
> 
> Please fill the form out and mail it to Bob McKenna, 648 West 
> Sandalwood Court, Louisville, CO 80027, with your payment. Please 
> also email the completed form to Bob at natsregister at s-cars.org so we 
> can have an accurate count of how the events will be attended 
> (without having to wait for the USPS to get us your hard copy forms).
> 
> A note about the event:
> 
> The event is shaping up nicely! It will include a great balance 
> between social, technical, driving, and friendly concours competition 
> all in one weekend. It is however somewhat grass-roots oriented. We 
> are not the Porsche Club of America (50,000 members strong), or the 
> Ferrari Club of America in that we don't have an experienced staff to 
> plan a National Meet, or, more importantly, a club balance sheet to 
> front costs. So, what I am getting at is this:
> 
> Please make your hotel reservations (if you need a hotel room) and 
> fill out & email your registration forms as soon as you can. This 
> will help take the logistical strain off of our small group of 
> volunteer organizers and will help us make it a world class event. We 
> have excellent sponsorship support and as such we will have great 
> door prizes, concours awards, and giveaways. These will include 
> everything from Audi boutique items, service coupons from local 
> dealerships and independent repair facilities, clear bra installs, 
> and four wheel dyno runs (for a lucky few), etc..
> 
> So, don't delay. 
> 
> 1)	Make your hotel reservations, 
> 2)	register, 
> 3)	email us your info, and 
> 4)	mail your registration form with your payment. 
> 5)	Then, start to think about what you want to bring for the 
> swap meet.
> 
> Finally, please pass this information along to other Audi aficionados 
> that may be interested in joining us this Labor Day weekend (your 
> local Audi-clubs, etc.). We already have ~50 people signed up, so get 
> while the getting is good.
> 
> See you Friday night, 8/31 at TEC.
