Disney Princess Half Marathon DVC Host?

[sdlipton]

DIS'ers,

My wife (pikaboo27) and I need your help because, shock of all shocks, Member Services and the Disney Sports Travel Agents were of absolutely ZERO assistance!

Does anyone know what DVC Property will serve as the HOST hotel for the Disney Princess Half Marathon February 25-17, 2011? Let me add to this that I know that Animal Kingdom Lodge is listed on the event website as a host hotel but the the Villa's are NOT and nor is Kidani.

Thoughts, insights, help. PLEASE!!!!

DVC resorts don't serve as host hotels for any race.

For the 2010 Princess, SSR and OKW were race hotels. Not sure what they'll do for 2011, but last time those two had race event transportation provided.

I kow the Boardwalk didn't have transportation.

From what I read at the events board, if you use your points at AKV your will be fine since the bus will be there to take you to the race events.
I know we just booked Jambo house at AKV since I figure it will be easier to get to the race bus than from Kadani. Now all I have left to do is register for the race.

I am going to book on points at AKL, Jambo,,,this year the transportation was great from SSR all weekend long...the bus did not pick up at the regular bus stop though, there was a designated area away from the disney bus stop.
Member services and disney sports were of no help in answering my questions, but it all worked out great. I thought of staying at BLT for 2011 but I don't think the monorail runs early enough to get me over to the bus at the poly, I think I was on the bus by 4am.
