Tracie A. Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Trying to decide - Holiday Inn or Hilton Garden.... where is everyone else staying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediMike Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 Although I love the Holiday Inn points a little more, I picked the Hilton Garden, saw a couple other folks were staying there as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siskiyoufire Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Im in the holiday inn express. Anyone have any idea what the "group activities" will entail? Will it be like "fall backwards into so and so's arms" or a game of charades... or...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corywhitlock Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Count 1 more in for dinner Friday night. My name is Cory and I'm from Nevada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracie A. Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Gotcha! I am leaning towards Holiday Inn or Holiday Inn Express I think. Will firm up my plans tomorrow. Anyone else driving from Seattle area Friday? I would be glad to exchange cell #s so we can connect in case anyone has trouble with the pass or getting there. Weather / road conditions / autos should not stand in any of our ways!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sartort Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Anyone have any idea what the "group activities" will entail?Will it be like "fall backwards into so and so's arms" or a game of charades... or...? Ar the Seattle masters interview the group activities were a financial aid lecture/ Q&A, a video presentation on the program, and talking to each other while we waited for our next interview.

Tracie A. Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Based on the forums - I see 11 of us confirmed for dinner. I'm making the reservation for 6:30 PM. Although I think most of us will be in town by 6 PM - I figure an extra half hour for emergencies, problems with hotel check-ins, power naps / freshening up after travelling would be great :) For those travelling from far out of town, or from the Seattle area, I have 3 extra seats in my car to get people either to Yakima or to dinner, or to the interviews if anyone needs help. Just private message me and we can work out arrangements! Thanks, Tracie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcowman Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hey Tracie, Count me in for 2nd street! I'm from Yakima and can tell you that 2nd street hosts "first Fridays" where they setup a dance floor and specials on drinks. It should be quiet enough until 9-10ish. I look forward to meeting you all and wish you a safe trip here! Thank you Tracie for helping organize this too! Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter27 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hello everyone here. I have to confess that I've been watching from the shadows, holding my breath waiting for an interview. My name is Peter and I'm from Spokane. I finally got the invite on the 21st and I'd love to join you all for dinner. Would that be alright? I saw the location and time, I just have to get into town at a reasonable time. I may not make it until about 9:00 or so. If I can't make it, good luck, and I will be looking forward to meeting you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hornbyd Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hello all, My name is David and would love to join in on the dinner plans on Friday. Seeing as the party room was reserved I imagine there won't be an issue, and I too look forward to meeting everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracie A. Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Yep! The more the merrier! I made reservations for a few extra than I originally tallied :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tawnab Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hi, I am coming a little late to the party. But, my name is Tawna and I am a first year student in Yakima and wasn't sure if anyone from my class has touched base with you guys. We have a "mentor-type" from the class ahead of us and it has been VERY helpful. He met us the night before interviews for a little informal Q&A, which went miles to help with the nerves (not really, but it sounds good:-)). Anyway, just wanted to say hello and offer any direction I can. I will also be at the interview site on Saturday morning to help with that. Reading this thread is giving me a little retro-anxiety, I know EXACTLY how you are all feeling right now. It's so exciting to see the next class coming in. Let me know if you have any questions. It will all be fine! I swear!!! If I can get to a this point, anyone can! Best wishes, Tawna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracie A. Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Thank you Tawna! We appreciate the encouragement! Would you like to join us for dinner Friday night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tawnab Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hi Tracie! Would love to, even if just for a little while. Do you want me to rally a few others? Have you heard from anyone else in our class? We have finals next week, but I know there are at least a few who would be interested. Congratulations on your interview invitation!
