[Uwracing] Race next weekend!

[Galen Jensen Erickson]

I just talked to Dan at OSU and he says not to count on homestays.  He said he will get back to me if anything comes up.

I will keep track of people looking for homestays so I can maybe hook people up for hotel rooms.  Let me know if you find any deals on hotel rooms in the area.
