Last time I heard POP actually doesn't allow big groups to book at that hotel. Most of them are at the All-Stars. You may have small groups there but as far as big cheerleading/football groups they won't be around.
Another reason why POP trumps the All Stars in my opinion!

Thats great to know. When I was there in 07 the sports had a ton of groups running around and swimming on top of my kids.

I could be wrong..I haven't kept up with POP news in awhile but that was true once upon a time. I haven't stayed there since '05 though.

Back when I was 70 years old we stayed at All Star Sports. The pool was full of cheerleaders. I thought that was a treat.

Re: pop century - who's gonna be there?

I just asked the same question when I booked for the end of August a few days ago.. (Shhh.... I booked another trip accidently! :)

Anyway,
2 CM's told me the same as Cinderbella posted. They don't allow "large, organized groups" at PC. Also, they don't allow them during free dining periods.

I have had 2 poor experiences in the spring with sports/cheer groups. Arggg..! I know they are just teens having fun but geesh! Where is the SUPERVISION? My DD so did not have to hear/see what they were cheering about and doing after dark!

that is so good to know and i agree with the "where is the supervision". teenagers are the ones who need it more then a 2 year old. thanks for the info. i can rest knowing i wont be trampled on by a bunch of kids in the pool.
