Unhappy HCC sold to Westgate Resorts - April Fool's

I knew it was to good to last - It looks like they were sold to a low end timeshare company. I wonder if our agreements will be honored? I will hold out hope but I am very concerned - If it does not work out, I guess we can get 80% of our deposit back - I hope??

In case you were wondering:

For the record. Heath Kirschner, Sales V.P. @ High Country Club states that HCC is not in talks with anyone to be sold. The company has been very successful with their business model and intends to continue to growth the company by providing extraordinary value and service to it's current and potential travelers.

Brian - sorry.....it was a real April Fools joke.

I already received a phone call and e-mail from HCC saying they know it is a joke, but several people have called them and are concerned.

I really just wanted to have some fun, but with all the merger rumors (about a different club) this one was hard to resist.

I edited this thread title to add "April Fools" as it is now April 2nd and the joke is now over.

HCC thought this was in good fun, but wants us to CLARIFY that it was a joke and they are NOT selling to Westgate (or anyone else) as apparently they received several concerned phone calls and e-mails from current and perspective members.
