**** All 4 hotels are within a half mile of each other and are
the closest to the course. We also worked a good deal
for all coaches and teams to eat at Boca di Beppo. This is an
Italian style restaurant that will more than
accommodate your team's needs. I will be sending you a form that
will allow you to obtain Reservation for that Friday night meal.
There are many other restaurants all along Brandon Blvd. and
Lumdsen Blvd.
