WHERE:	The Drawbridge Inn Hotel 2477 Royal Drive Fort Mitchell, KY 41017 (859) 757-4580 (local) (877) 843-7523 (toll free) For our special reduced hotel rates, $95.00 plus tax, please visit our main crew contact page. The main hotel is currently full with overflow delegated to the Wingate. They have rooms for 308.52 total for 4 nights if you book with them based on current discounts. Drawbridge quoted a $97 night rate if they forwarded your reservation to Wingate. You have to personally book on line with Wingate to get this 30% discount. The Wingate manager said that this rate will not be available too long so we should try to get this info out to the membership quickly. The Wingate said to book online if the 30% discount is still available even if Drawbridge was supposed to forward your reservation. If you do book to get the 30% discount and Drawbridge was to make your reservation make sure that prior to your arrival at Covington you call Wingate and cancel the more expensive reservation to be fair to Wingate. Recommend someone get the info out for our guys to make their own reservations on line with Wingate ASAP.
