The room is $116 per night and then the convention tickets are $175 per person... is that correct?

What part of Texas are you in?

I know on the state message board there is a group of Texans getting together to drive into DC for the convention. That may help you get there!!

DC Chapter Master Ping List

Heads Up - Lots of NEW info in this thread. Please read it.

[Mrs] T and I will be there. The patriotic duo of Rlmorel and Veeram from MA will be there. Hope to see more of you all there.

We usually meet at big FReeps and don't get a chance to raise a glass in a relax atmosphere. This is the event to do both.

Ping. Please post here if you are planning on attending our Free Republic National Tea Party Convention or March on Washington!

I am planning on attending all three days and have made all appropriate reservations. I'll be driving out from Knoxville, TN starting about 8:00 am and arriving about 5:00 pm. The vehicle is an '04 Navigator and I could take up to three passengers, or 4 in a pinch.

I’m in Houston...I can’t tell you how proud I am of Sheila Jackson Lee... =P

I probably wouldnt be able to do a road trip, as fun as that would be. But I’ll see what I can do.

Thanks for the heads up!

“We will be in Washington on 9/12 as part of our vacation...good planning;-)”

Great! Glad to hear you will be there! Get your room booked and Convention ticket as soon as you can! The Sheraton will be the place to be for the 9/11 weekend!

Some folks have been asking about what is included in the Free Republic Convention ticket price of $175.

Everyone must understand that convention costs for comps for our great speakers and the banquet room are included in the ticket price....which is really a bargain when you think about what is included during this weekend event!

Basic Schedule and things included and not included in ticket price:

9/11 - Early evening gathering and tribute to our heroes at Walter Reed. (DC chapter has snacks available for minimal cost)

9/11 - Later evening gathering in Sheraton rooftop room for candlelight vigil program in honor of all 9/11 victims. Finger foods and beverages provided.

9/12 - Buffet Breakfast included. Following breakfast we move to events at the Mall and March on Capitol.

9/12 - Evening Convention Banquet with great speakers and entertainment provided.

9/13 - Gathering for breakfast/brunch at attendees cost. Following breakfast/brunch we have gathering in meeting room with speakers and political action plans/ideas.

9/13 - Many FReepers/attendees will be leaving for home at various times during the day and evening.

Important Information

The Sheraton National is a Pet Friendly Hotel!

Some Freepers have told me they can't come to the convention or decided to go use another Hotel because they wanted to bring their dogs along.

I learned yesterday the Sheraton is a pet friendly hotel! For those who are concerned about leaving your dogs at home, or who have made reservations elsewhere, problem solved! Let the Sheraton know you will be bringing "Fido" along with you! The online reservation system does not have a pet option, you will need to call their reservation line for reservations with pets.

Listen to this great conservative, running for Senate for PA.

Lord knows, we could use a couple new conservative senators.
