Here’s the latest from our Real Estate Agent…. I like the part about hoping that “the storm heads out to see.” I think they’re in a hurry to get out of there.
Hurricane Update for our Guests
Dear Mrs. Wundy,
We wanted to touch base with you concerning your reservation. Your arrival date was somewhere between August 26th and August 29th, 2011. You we contacted earlier with news that you needed to delay your arrival because of Hurricane Irene.
You are our FIRST PRIORITY
We’d like you to know that there are mandatory evacuations on our island and all surrounding mainland areas. We will be closing our office at end of business today, August 26th and we will reopen AS SOON AS WE ARE ABLE TO GET BACK ONTO THE ISLAND (Sunday if possible, but it will probably be Monday).
The storm is supposed to pass over us Sunday morning. We’re all hoping, of course, that the storm heads out to see before coming our way. In any case, once we are able to get back to the office, WE WILL BE CALLING YOU FIRST WITH INFORMATION about your reservation, when you can arrive, etc.
In the meantime, we are at this time updating our web page every few hours with information. Once the storm hits, the best source of information may be our Facebook page—Chincoteague Resort Realty —as we expect to lose power for a period of time.
We thank you for your patience during this severe weather. We appreciate your business, and want to do our best so that you will continue to return to Chincoteague Resort Realty for your vacation plans.
Sincerely,
