In addition, we will have a Raffle Room where you can come by and browse the items up for auction as our continuing fundraiser for Aerial and for the raffles as well. A bit of information about the Ramada: it is located off I-40, Exit 44 in Asheville and is an excellent central location for our Gathering travels. It has an indoor/outdoor pool, on-site restaurant, interior hallway entrances, and many other amenities. Reservations can be made starting Tuesday, February 21, 2006 by calling: 1-800-678-2161.
