Interim list of 2010 Point Stretchers you've found

Until Hilton releases a global list of Point Stretchers available in 2010, I'd invite you to add yours here. These aren't ones you've necessarily booked, but simply ones you've found. (And you may not know, as I don't, how many days these are good for on each side of a particular night)

I will try (but make no promises

) to edit this post with what you might post.

UNITED STATES

California

Santa Rosa, HGI, 4/9

Texas

Dallas, Homewood Suites, Market Center 5/20
Dallas, Hilton Anatole

Washington D.C. 3/14 Hilton Connecticut Ave.

Not to be unappreciative, but can those who find a specific date at a property use the "flexible dates" option afterwards? It gives you a rolling 30-day calendar of award availability and award levels. Thanks!

Hilton Milwaukee City Center - April 1-30 (sold out April 8-9)
DT Milwaukee City Center - Fri-Mon in Mar-May
Hilton Milwaukee River - Fri-Mon in Mar-Apr
DT Hotel Milwaukee/Brookfield - Fri-Mon in Mar-Apr

Hilton Washington/Connecticut Avenue - March 2 - May 30 (expanding on cblaisd's previous report)

ES Phoenix - Airport at 44th Street - May 1-31
Hilton Phoenix Airport - Fri-Mon in May-June
HGI Scottsdale Old Town - June 1-30
DT Paradise Valley Resort - Scottsdale - June 1-30
ES Phoenix - North - April-June
Hilton Phoenix Chandler - June 1-30
HGI Scottsdale North/Perimeter Center - Fri-Mon in June
HGI Phoenix North Happy Valley - Fri-Mon in Apr-June
Homewood Suites Phoenix North Happy Valley - March 2-May 31
HI Phoenix - Surprise - Mon-Fri in May-June

It looks like nothing past June 30th is loaded, I would expect some availability at those Phoenix hotels if it were.

More importantly though ... I thought PS was dead?!?

Anything at all in Europe or is this basically USA only?

I checked Milan/Rome/Munich and found nothing.

Has there been a single thing found outside the USA?
