Tempe FUDCon update: Booked Monday rooms at ASU Memorial Union

[Robyn Bergeron]

I am pleased to report in that after much running around by Adam
McCullough of ASU - he had to obtain signatures and so forth to
reregister ASULUG as a university organization ahead of fall starting
to be able to book rooms in the spring - we have some rooms -more or
less- booked at ASU's Memorial Union.

Here's the more or less detail: The room requests have been submitted,
and will be processed by either the end of this week or very very
early next week.  The only detail excluding us from the rooms is if
they are already booked; I, however, using the power of the internets,
looked at what rooms were already on the MU calendar for booking, and
the rooms requested are NOT BOOKED.

Here are the rooms I have requested.  Since we are a
university-sponsored event with no admission costs, we qualify for
"Category I" pricing, meaning, the rooms are very cheap, and we don't
have to pay random "set-up" fees, or pay for things like microphones,
etc.  Listed below is the room name, capacity (in parentheses), and
the cost to rent it for the day (next to the dollar sign).  Also, we
can drop the rooms if we decide we don't need this many; some rooms
can be configured differently.  (Also, in the event that the details
about the Brickyard don't pan out, we can drop them altogether if
necessary.)

We will get more details soon, but at this moment I know that we do
not have a deposit due till either 60 or 30 days prior to the event.
(The university page with this detail seems to be MIA at the moment,
sadly.)

Navajo (30) $70
Apache (30) $70
Mohave (66) $90
La Paz (east and west, 48 - or can be split into two rooms of 24) $90
total ($45 each)
Gila (30) $70
Graham (30) $70

More details on the rooms themselves, including capacity,
configuration, as well as the map of where they are located is on page
