Winter Storm 09 -- Kansas City

[Phogfan86]

I just reserved my room -- $93 at the Mariott on the Country Club Plaza where all the Winter Storm pipe and drum competitions and workshops are held. You can also get a room at the Holiday Inn right next door for $94.

These are both just blocks from the KC's upscale Country Club Plaza shopping and dining area. Lots to do.

As rates at these hotels go, this is about $60 off per night, so it's a good deal. If you call to make reservations, be sure to mention the Midwest Highland Arts Fund Winter Storm to get the rate.

And no, I do not work for the KC Chamber of Commerce.

Not to mention that you're in walking distance of the Liberty Memorial, the National World War I Museum:

It's about time to resurrect this puppy. Winter Storm is less than a month away.

I guess I'd just highlight once again the Saturday night concert, which will include some of the best pipers on the planet. Pipers scheduled to appear include Chris Armstrong, John Cairns, Stuart Liddell, Angus MacColl and my personal favorite, Fred Morrison.

Tickets are $30 for adults, $15 for kids. I am as cheap as they come, and I think it'd be worth it at twice the price.
