From Econo Lodge in Waco, TX
Howdy! My name is Jerome and I'm the Guest Services Manager at the Econo Lodge Inn & Suites in Waco. I came across your blog for this weekend's chili cook off at the Icehouse and wanted to see if I could help your participants with a reasonable room rate. Our property is located on I-35 near downtown and a pretty easy drive out to Hog Creek. Our regular rates are about $69 plus tax but I would like to offer anyone that calls from the CCO a rate of $60 plus tax. I realize that while this isn't a huge discount, it is much cheaper than a lot of places in the area. We offer free Wi-fi and wired access internet service as well as a deluxe continential breakfast. In addition, the winner's room will be comped and the runner-up's room will be discounted 50%. If you have any questions at all feel free to contact me at any of the numbers listed below. I look forward to helping in any way that I can. Thanks and have a wonderful day!


Sincerely,

Jerome Lauderdale
