John,

they might be out of kings for those dates.  We had 40 rooms for thurs, Fri, and Sat.  they should be plenty.  try it again and just call me.

Quick question:  If I live in Chicagoland, and I'm only available for the Friday sessions, is there anything like a single-day-pass option for me and my one-owner W113?

Bill,

I'm afraid we couldn't handle the complexity of single day passes. I'm sorry.  We're just a bunch of volunteer Pagoda enthusiasts and we have to plan headcount for every meal and event.

URGENT:  FINAL NOTICE

PAGODAFEST has room for another 40 members.  THE HOTEL AND CAMPUS with Secure parking are close to selling out.  We chose this location because it was important to have an isolated campus where our Pagodas would be safe.  It is therefore important that if you plan to come to PagodaFest this September, that you register and secure a hotel room at the Hyatt Lodge in Oak Brook immediately.


Our committee is also setting events and meals in which we need attendee counts for.  With four months to go, the time is now to complete the registration process.
Announcing PagodaFest Chicago to be held on the beautiful wooded campus of the former McDonalds World HQ!  We are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Pagoda W113 introduction.
Full Members of The Pagoda SL Group (SL113.org) are invited to make reservations now for Thursday night, September 28, Departing on Sunday morning, October 1, 2023. Attendance is limited to the first 125 people.  We expect 50 Pagodas and lots of informational presentations, great camaraderie, and merriment.   The events will be almost exclusively on the campus as is the hotel with safe parking.  We have secured a block of rooms at the hotel discounted by $50 per night. We are planning an off-campus drive and Saturday dinner at a local restaurant. Tickets for the event include meals and events for Friday and Saturday at a cost of $435 per person. The preliminary agenda is on the reservation page, with a map of the venue.

We expect great attendance because of the event’s central U.S. location, and being the first post-pandemic gathering we’ve had.  We hope to see you there.
