Columbia United FC Clash of the Carolinas UPDATE - PLEASE READ!!!

There has been a change in housing arrangements for the games. In an effort to make sleeping arrangements more comfortable for our players our funds have allowed us to book more rooms. Players will now be housed two per room, in stead of four. Both boys' teams will be staying at the Comfort Suites North Charleston about 10 minutes from Daniel Island. The contact information is as follows: Comfort Suites - www.choicehotels.com -- 2540 North Forest Drive, North Charleston - (843)725-5400.

ALL PLAYERS WILL STILL REPORT TO BLACKBAUD STADIUM on Friday July 6th. Transportation will be provided to the Comfort Suites, if needed.

We suggest that any parents who have booked the Hampton Inn on Daniel Island consider keeping those rooms as they are much closer to the game site and the banquet and they will be cheaper. Parents, book your rooms now. The Hampton Inn contact information is: 160 Fairchild Street, Charleston, SC 29492 (843)216-6555 or 1-800-Hampton.

Tell the folks at Hampton Inn you are with the high school all-star soccer games, and they should give you a special rate. There is no such agreement with the Comfort Suites.

I ASSUME (knowing that is dangerous) that we will be picking up match and banquet tickets when we arrive Friday?

As of leaving for OKC, I had not received any by mail but have paid. . .

Thought all would like to know—

Pretty cool radio ad promoting the game running in the Columbia area. Heard it this morning riding to work.

The "plan" is as follows:

When the players check in Friday for registration, we will hand them an envelope with their banquet tickets and game tickets. Again, this is the "plan".

We look forward to a great weekend!

For those in the Lowcountry area:
