fast. 912-685-3000. Because of the way they are handling reservations, you must
Mention SCV Reunion for the discount rate and you must speak with MRS. ANNE

rooms and turned reservations away. To avoid any confusion, call the local
number 912-685-3000 and ask to speak to Mrs. Anne Purcell specifically.
