There is block of 30 rooms for Friday Night and Saturday Night. You can make reservations by calling 877-275-2448. For block pricing, please reference Patterned Speed Horse Association RB (ID 321200).
One of the unique features here is that you can book a room at the Casino Resort or if you would like things to be a little quieter, you can book at their off-site Skagit Ridge Hotel that is just down the street – They do have a free shuttle. Either way, you can still access the pool. The Skagit Ridge Hotel also has a continental breakfast.
Please get your rooms booked well in advance!
They allow RV parking, but do not allow overnight “Camping”.
For the annual meeting, we may be in for a shorter meeting as of now, there aren’t a lot of rule proposals. But we look forward to great discussions about how we make our organization better as well as electing our Executive committee!
