I understand that the JO's will be in Cleveland this year. Does anyone know the venue or the hotel?

I may be there volunteering, probably over the weekend. I live about a half hour from Cleveland.

Cleveland in the winter? brrrrr.

I have a relative up there, and it's gonna be coooold.

JOs were in Cleveland two years ago. I didn't like it then. But, I did like the fact that the following weekend I was in Hawaii for the Hawaii Open. That made me feel good.

Last year's were in Colorado Springs. Maybe they'll get their act together and get it someplace warm like Sacramento or San Diego (which is pretty warm at the moment).

Thanks for the link. I booked a room at the Embassy Suites and the rate seems pretty good.

Now about the weather, think I should leave the windsurfers at home?

At least in Cleveland, I'll give a hoot about the fencing. There won't be the potential distraction of strapping boards to one's feet and descending moutains with a low coefficient of friction.
