> Hi Fred,
> 
> I hope you are doing well. We finally have the Next Generation Jazz Festival audition results back from our faculty judges at Berklee College, and I am please to inform you that the Davis Senior High School Jazz Band has been selected to participate as a finalist in the High School Big Band Division for the NGJF next April 1-3. Congratulations to you and the members of the ensemble.
> 
> I will send you an official letter of acceptance in the mail. However, in an effort to save paper, I will be sending via email other important documents and information including the results from our draw for warm-up and performance times, sign-up sheets for additional performance venues, stage plot forms, etc. So that you can get started with travel plans and make your room reservations for the event in April, I have attached in this email a list of hotels located in the downtown Monterey area. Please note that your group name has been sent to the staff at our host hotel, the Portola Hotel and Spa, but that rooms there are available on a first come, first serve basis. Included on the hotel list attachment is a flyer with procedural information and a Code of Conduct from the staff at the Portola Hotel. Please contact Sandy Ram at sram at portolahotel.com<mailto:sram at portolahotel.com> or if Sandy is unavailable, try Doris Lopez-dlopez at portolahotel.com<mailto:dlopez at portolahotel.com> or call her at 831 649-2688 to make your reservations. You should have a credit card and your room requirements ready to go.
> 
> Should you decide to use the Portola Hotel, I can send you a room-list form which the staff at the hotel require groups to use. 2011 NGJF room rates in our student block at the Portola Hotel and Spa are $151 plus tax for participating ensembles, and for general public the rate is $219 plus tax. Please let me know if you are planning to stay there.
> 
> As well, please be aware that we have held a number of rooms at the Monterey Marriott which is also attached to the Monterey Conference Center ($193 for any room plus tax). The Marriott requires a two-night stay minimum.
> 
> I’m happy to report that the Next Generation Festival will continue to be free and open to the public for 2011 and requires no tickets or passes. However, new this year will be a Gold Circle VIP seating made available for purchase for the Friday Night Judges Concert. Tickets for this stage front area seating will be on sale for $50 and includes a post-concert reception. More details on this will follow. By using hotels/motels in the City of Monterey, you can help us to keep the event free for the future. Please do not hesitate to contact me for help in obtaining rooms or any other NGJF related matter.
> 
> Finally, please take a moment to reply to this email so that I know that you have received your confirmation as a finalist. Once again my congratulations and I look forward to hearing your fine jazz band at the Next Generation Jazz Festival!

> All the best,
