I don't remember the year for the first, but the second would have been around 2001. The first was a meeting of users of a particular medical software package, the second was a large regional annual meeting for Weight Watchers where they roll out the program for the next year to the employees early. We were a group of predominately women, hundreds of us. They had to create more restrooms on the event floor and repurposed the men's rooms into makeshift ladies rooms. They made the men's rooms more presentable by putting potted plants in all the urinals!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02686604561750974253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7812116909571848352.post-49404970383848911582017-05-23T00:44:08.860-04:002017-05-23T00:44:08.860-04:00Hi Sarah, thanks so much for the kind words.

QCD never seems to disappoint!<br /><br />I first stumbled onto your site in late 2014 when I was trying to find information on the ex-Holiday Inn/ex-Days Inn in Lafayette, Indiana (also featured here). Somehow the Cincinnati North hotel came up and I was hooked on this blog from the moment I started reading! I wish I would have had the opportunity to visit here, but your write-up on the place is an acceptable substitute :)Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204334765060755673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7812116909571848352.post-41218904952212814112017-05-10T15:33:29.266-04:002017-05-10T15:33:29.266-04:00That's awesome how you got connected to disc g...That's awesome how you got connected to disc golf through this hotel.

In 1998, Cincy hosted the World Disc Golf Championship and this was the 'host hotel'. Never forget delivering to the hotel and seeing the banquet rooms filled with vendors, demonstrations, etc. Had no idea disc golf was such a legit sport. I've now been playing competitively (off and on) for 14 years and my aspirations all started that day.Ben Shoonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03214834413139615140noreply@blogger.com
