[NoVa-Corvairs] preregistration update

[Curtis Shimp]

Darrin:

I just did a Internet check of hotel prices in Leesburg.  The best I can
find for our Best Western is $130.  The only other hotel to pop up is a
Comfort Suites and from the look of the address it has to be a block or
two away.  It is $170.

I suspect that these Lessburg hotels feel they can get the Dulles Airport
traffic.
