... some folks are hell-bent on burning all of their briges behind them?

The Riv isn't home just for our small convention ... it is home to dozens and dozens of similar size conventions... some that are taking place the same week ours is.

CC & GTCC is just a very small fish in a very large pond. The Riv may be the only suitable place in town to hold our future conventions. For those who are not happy with the host hotel and the convention facilities, I would suggest that they do some of the research legwork and logistics and let the club officers know of all the better deals they come up with. Meanwhile, I think the club should keep all of its options open.
