Hi guys, I emailed the Ocean Park Motel to see what type of a discount they would give and he sent me back this nice email and I thought I'd pass it along.
Dear Robyn,
Thank you for your interest in the Ocean Park. Beginning June 3rd, we have a variety of rooms available. For the nurseing review, we are offering one queen for $90.00 plus tax, two queens for $135.00 plus tax and three queens for $165.00 plus tax. All our rooms are non-smoking and include a private bathroom with shower, color cable TV with HBO, fresh coffee service, free wireless and phone service, and free off-street parking. Rooms with two or more beds also include micro wave and fridge.
The Ocean Park is a lovely, family-style motel with two large gardens, a small children’s playground, and an outdoor jacuzzi for our guests. We are located in a quiet, very safe residential neighborhood south of Golden Gate Park, one block from the zoo and the ocean. A variety of excellent restaurants are a few minutes’ drive away, and a breakfast diner is just around the corner.
This is the very first motel built in San Francisco, in 1936. It opened just one month before the Golden Gate Bridge, in what was then the recreational area of the City — when Fisherman’s Wharf was still filled with fishing boats! It has a unique Art-Deco styling, and it has been in our family for more than thirty years. With twenty-four rooms and suites, the Ocean Park is ideal for families who welcome our quiet, garden surroundings and outdoor hot tub after the excitement of downtown attractions. About twenty minutes from the airport, downtown, or Fisherman’s Wharf, we have public transportation at our door, direct to downtown.
For reservations please call us directly at 415-566-7020. Alternatively, you could send a fax to 415-665-8959. We ask for a credit card number, including the expiration date and the cardholder’s name, billing address and phone number. Our cancellation policy is 48 hours notice. With a credit card guarantee, we will hold the room for you all night long, no matter when you arrive.
We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Marc Duffett

NCLEX Nursing Review at SFSU
I spoke on the phone with Sally Lagerquist, RN, MS who is the author/editor of Davis' NCLEX-RN Success, 2e book. She and various other nursing educators will be presenting a Nursing Review 4 day, 30 hour course on June 4, 5, 6 & 7, 2007, which will be hosted by SFSU Nursing in Knuth Hall SFSU. There is nearby motel/Inn discounts for nursing students if you tell them you are attending the Nursing Review.M. Lagerquist went on in great detail about the 99% passing success rate of this course and the various unique and funny styles used by the nursing educators to get the info across to us and into our (sometimes stubborn) heads. There will be lots of practice questions. This review is not about us reading books, but understanding the concepts and test skills and strategies to pass with flying colors. We will be given outlines for everything that is covered. No notes need to be taken.
The price is normally $275 per person. With a group of 10, the price will be $200 per person. After that the price is $275 per person regardless of group size. The price after 3/13/07 is $295. Then it goes up to $320 after 5/1/07.You can download the registration application.
Guys I really want all of us to go because I think it’s a fun way to end our class. After all we started together, let’s finish together. Everyone that I’ve talked to that attended this review class and have taken the boards have all passed.
Please post here or talk to me and let me know if anyone is interested.
If you want to check it out online, the address is,review for nurses.com
This site also offers unlimited online practice questions for 4 weeks for $89.99.

Hey Guys,
I was thinking we should all try to wear the same scrubs for pinning so that we look “uniform” and I found some nice looking, reasonably priced scrubs at A1 scrubs .com. Here are the links, we can talk about it next class session and see if we all agree. The top is $20 and the pants are $17.

Hi everyone. I have asked for some advice regarding how we should go about chosing our speakers for our pinning. Upon great reflection, I feel that the most appropriate and fair way to go about it is like this....
A sign up sheet will go out next class session. If you are interested in speaking, place your name unto the area of interest. You will be asked to give a small presentation to our group, telling us why you would like this oppurtunity. Soon after, these names will go onto a voting paper the following week, and the speaker will be chosen through democratic representation of majority.
Does this sound fair to everyone? If you have any other suggestions, please let me know asap.
Thank you all...
