Is there any sort of official lodging for this event? I've already been booked for months, but I'm just wondering.

I have never heard of such a thing for any meet.

I think St. Louis in 2014 might have had one.

It has ever been a thing, primarily at larger gatherings and by groups who traveled a significant distance in order to attend.
I'm currently in Ohio but I'm staying about 80 miles east of Columbus and will be here for the next 3 nights.

I shared a room with a few friends (fellow roads enthusiasts who were also attending the meet) the nights before and/or after the St. Louis meet in 2014, but I don't recall hearing about any hotel that was "official".  I've never heard of that being a thing at road meets.

No. Never crossed my mind.
Only thing "official" is lunch at Tommy's Diner at 11:30 AM.

Back in Harrisburg as of 5:30 PM.  The rain was not even close to being a factor on my drive home.

Anyway thanks for the great and interesting meet.

The best part was the abandoned road down on the ravine!

I knew Glen Echo was going to be a hit.
