Here is the finalized schedule:

Please post up if you'd like to join us! It will be an awesome time!
UPDATE:
I had a small number of rooms put on hold for our group at the Sleep Inn, in Sandusky. Here's some info on it: Sleep Inn Sandusky - Hotels.com
The rate is $69.99/night (for 2 adults - $5.00/night extra per adult). The downside is that it looks like they only have double bed rooms left at this rate. That could always change depending on cancellations though, so you can ask when you call to make a reservation. The only other rooms I was told they have left are $139+ per night. If you would like to stay at this hotel with us, please send me a pm and I will give you the reservation number.
The are a lot of other hotels in this area if you would like to stay somewhere else. Here is a map showing some: Hotels.com - hotels in Sandusky, Ohio, United States. The Sleep Inn is right off of Milan Rd. near Hwy 2. There are a few really cheapy hotels and some more expensive ones, all right in that same area.
Wherever you decide to stay, if you know for sure that you are going, I would recommend making your reservation ASAP. Between Cedar Point and the car show going on in town, I'd imagine the hotels will be filling up fast.
