DisruptiveConduct Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hilton Vancouver 301 W. 6th St. Vancouver, WA, 98660 Hotel Group Code: OWG for our special discount rate! Click this link to book your room now! Hello everyone! I wanted to take some time to put together a good informational post about our venue. Some of you might already be familiar and we are happy to see you returning. For all the new people coming through, this venue is the nicest place I have seen an OFCC happen. From the humble beginnings of the barn and the armory, the Hilton delivers comfort and luxury like no other! Map & Directions The Gaming Hall We booked the largest venue offered by the Hilton, The Heritage Ballroom. That’s 11,000 square feet dedicated to your gaming weekend. High pile carpets caress your feet as you stand across from your opponents (Yes, I played barefoot one year). 18 feet of ceiling space softens the roar of battle coming from across the hall. Brilliant dynamic lighting sets the mood and provides for a not-so-squinty Sunday morning. A dedicated entrance on the east side of the Hilton along with a section of 5 minute parking make loading your things into the hall fast and convenient. Parking Parking is not included in your room stay. The Hilton has parking in their secure garage for $18 per day. However, there are plenty of parking options for the weekend. Any public metered spot is available for free on the weekend. There is also a cheaper pay garage NE of the Hilton, the Park N’ Go located with an entrance off W 6th St. Feel free to use the 5 minute loading/unloading zone located off Columbia St to unload your army and bags into the hall. Please note, we will be using part of this area for loading/unloading of terrain and tables Sunday at 4PM. Local Attractions What venue would be complete without some cool stuff around it? The Downtown Vancouver area always delivers. Almost all of it walkable. The Vancouver Farmers Market takes place every weekend morning across the street in Esther Short Park. Esther Short Park will host Viva Vancouver Latin Festival on the same weekend. Loowit Brewing Company is right out the hall doors and across the street. They fill growlers! Joe’s Crab Shack and its infamously long wait times is within walking distance and will provide Shark Bites by the tray full. Take a tour of the new waterfront reconstruction built on top of the hollowed gaming grounds previously provided by the Red Lion at the Quay. So many other restaurants, bars, and everything else all right next to a great gaming weekend. Please follow the steps below to get our discounted room rate before they are all gone! We have a limited amount of rooms available at this low price, so act fast. The room block closes on 8/9 and has the possibility of running out of rooms. We cannot wait to see you there! For the Good of the Order! You can book through this link or follow the instructions below to do it the manual way.

Andrewgeddon Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Do we know if we'll have access to the rear parking lot like we did last year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisruptiveConduct Posted June 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 FYI: Booking shoulder nights has come to our attention as a potential issue with getting a reservation. Shoulder nights are the Thursday before the event (August 15) and the Sunday night after the event (August 18). We have a limited number of shoulder nights and if you attempt to book your stay including one of these days, it may say your reservation is not possible or "nothing found for these dates". We can fix this! Please PM myself, @evil_bryan, or @ninefinger and we can contact the hotel and add more days. Please include which days you need to book in your PM. Thanks and cannot wait to see all of you there! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valourunbound Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 I didn't see the free parking post until after the event last year, so I'm making sure to pay attention this time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my neighborhood and there's been a ton of changes over the last year. if it has to do with Esther Park or the downtown area, post it up!

Andrewgeddon Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Tap Union Freehouse is always a great place to grab beers. It's a bit of a walk, about 5 blocks, but always worth it IMO. I plan on heading there Saturday evening after games are played 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
