    I was finding hotel rooms for $45 on hotels.com. Directly downtown is going to be more expensive but a little outside of the city (5-10 miles) rooms can be found cheap.

    Do be cautious where you book a room.

    In the city is also a bit far…and some areas are not as safe to stay at. We are going to be about 50 minutes south of downtown Chicago and transporation will not be easily available from the city to the suburbs.

    I’ve recommended a couple of hotels in Tinley Park and Orland Park…if considering anywhere else, please ask me here or by email at mailto:info@etedance.com

    Duh….for some reason I was thinking this was the Columbus gig. This is sad that my pole parties are starting to run together!! (or I can’t think of anything else but seeing the men of pole next week!!!)

    I’m getting the same way. My husband is jokingly calling this the summer of pole…. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif

    We have confirmed our venue and are renting at our local park district building.

    http://empowermentthroughexoticdance.com/polejammap.htm

    Minimum 6 poles but I’m going back there today to check it out we may have 8 or 9 poles.
    10.5 foot ceilings

    I’m awaiting info from Michelle and Katrina who will be offering a workshop at the jam location (prior to or afterward) and private/semi-privates at our studio (which is 35 minutes east in Chicago Heights) that morning or Sunday morning.

    Also looking to plan an outing for afterward.

    Once I get Michelle’s information I will post times but we are looking at starting the jam around mid to late afternoon and running it for 3 hours.

    So mark 8/7 on your calendar and start making travel plans!

    Another hotel note:

    Super 8
    9485 W 191st St
    Mokena, IL 60448
    (708) 479-7808

    About $50 per night for a room with queen/king bed for two

    This is about 13 minutes from the jam. I’ve not known anyone who has stayed there. Expedia reviews were ok…Trip advisor were poor. If anyone is interested I can see if I can check it out and see what it feels like walking into the place and ask if I can see a room. Just let me know.

    I’d still advise the previous two hotels in Tinley park I mentioned before…Tinley park holiday Inn or Wingate Wyndham

    Do we have any pricing on the cost to attent the jam or any workshops yet??? Also, I might need to know if that Super 8 is bug free and in an ok area. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif I might have to go that way. We will see.

    The pole jam is going to be $30 per person if we run for 3 hours which I am pretty certain we are doing but MIGHT change based on the workshops, etc.

    Michelle is still getting back to me about the workshops and privates content and cost…I should know by the end of this week.

    I will check out the condition of the hotel later this week or next week but I can tell you that the area it’s in is very safe and fine to be in, even if you’re traveling alone.
