IlliniKrush Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) I used the search funtion and found nothing...also checked the Sox website and found nothing, so i figured i'd post this. If there's a thread out there somewhere or this is old news, sorry. During the game tonight DJ announced that Soxfest 2006 will take place Jan 27-29. Just thought i'd throw the date out there for those that need to plan things out way in advance. I think there was a number to call to start making reservations, but i wasn't really paying attention to the details, just the dates. I'll be back at school at that time (last year soxfest fell on the last weekend of winter break), but i'm hoping to make it up from Champaign with Steve for the entire weekend.

Iwritecode Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I just hope they don't try to charge me more money if I get the 2-night package and have a group of 4 like they did last year. Supposedly the price is based on 2 people in the room even though they give you 4 passes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Hyatt says the packages can't be booked until October 15th. This conflicts with what the Soxfest hotline and website says. I emailed Brooks on this and am awaiting response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
