*On the Sunday, October 16th, 2011 edition of The Travel Guys…*

Join The Travel Guys for a roundtable discussion Sunday. Road Reporter Clayton Whitehead is on hand to share his experiences escorting groups to the Kentucky Derby, a venue to which he returns next May. If you've ever dreamed of attending "The Run for the Roses," don't miss Clayton's descriptions of the event on Sunday's show.

We'll also get off into hotel world during our discussion. What makes a good hotel? Is it the sheets or the service? The food or the amenities in the room? Do you just want peace and quiet or the best price? What makes the perfect hotel accommodation? We'll have Cold Stone Ice Cream certificates for those who call in and participate in the discussion.

Finally, local arts groups are all struggling to get through the soft patch in the economy. We'll have a special guest in studio Sunday to tell you about a local choral group that has revived itself and is singing on. All that and more, Sunday, on The Travel Guys...
