Housing Update January 1, 2011

CHARLOTTE 2012 HOUSING UPDATE

1.  MAKE SURE YOUR HOTEL IS IN SYNC WITH YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF YOUR HOUSING SITUATION FOR 2012.

2.  IT IS SUGGESTED YOU CONTACT YOUR HOTEL, AT LEAST, EVERY -90- DAYS.  TELL THEM IT IS MERELY A COURTESY CALL TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS OK.

3.  PERSONNEL AT THE HOTELS CHANGE FROM TIME TO TIME.  IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOUR HOTEL, YOU WANT TO CATCH IT EARLY.

 4.  HOSPITALITY ROOMS ARE THE SAME EVERYWHERE IN CHARLOTTE.  THE HOTELS WANT YOU TO USE THEIR FOOD & BEVERAGE & THEY WANT YOU TO RENT YOUR HOSPITALITY ROOMS FROM THEM.  SHRINERS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INVENTIVE.  YOU MUST BE INVENTIVE IN THIS SITUATION & YOU MUST DO WHAT WILL FIT YOUR BUDGET.  BE INVENTIVE.

5.  MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR CONTRACT WITH YOUR HOTEL.  SOME     HOTELS THINK THE AGRFEEMENT THEY HAVE WITH IMPERIAL IS ALL THEY NEED.  THIS IS INCORRECT.  THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD, THEY NEED CONTRACTS WITH EACH SHRINE CENTER THEY WILL HOST.  BUT AS YOU KNOW, PERSONNEL CHANGE & THE OLD PEOPLE DO NOT TELL THE NEW PEOPLE WHAT IS GOING ON.

DO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN A “FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE” SITUATION. KEEP UP WITH YOUR HOTEL. YOU ARE NOW IN CHARGE OF THE HOUSING FOR YOUR SHRINE CENTER.
