The issue has now been resolved and people can book online at www.hibowlinggreen.com or by calling 270 745-0088 and quoting the block code ZR2 to get the $133/night rate. This rate includes breakfast for two at the HI restaurant. Given the issues we had, I'd be inclined to call the 270 number rather than book online.

In the unlikely event that people do run into issues, you are encouraged to call Shandi Dorsey in sales between 8am-5pm central time. She promised to get you booked immediately at the block rate. Her direct line is 270 393-8664.

Thanks for your patience everyone.
I booked mine early on without any problems, but I agree with Bob--Calling the hotel directly is the best way to assure reservations. I was in the hotel business for roughly 20 years and I have always called directly. Also if you are looking for a same day reservation at a hotel but the hotel says they are full, wait until about 5 pm then call and ask them if they have cleared their no shows. Sometimes that will reveal an open room. --Bob
