The following is needed:

• Price lists, availability, and maximum capacity numbers for the coming year (Dec 2021 – Dec 2022). Please include any information about the quality of hotel and location. Locations within a 10 mile radius of the Scott AFB will be given precedence, although all locations in a 50 mile radius will be considered.
