I thought I had a link to their registration page on our website, but I'll get that up tomorrow. You can call them directly at 571-201-7661. They are good folks (who were at our open house on Saturday) and they'll treat you right.

Just a bump to remind people this is the last day to save $10 on registration.

We've got just over 200 registered so far with more than 170 signed up for the Brats 'n' Brews Friday dinner. I hope you're among them!

Hey Steve, what's the latest on a shuttle for the Brats n brews dinner?

If there won't be a shuttle, how do I go about getting a refund?

Thanks.

We'll be using the company pick up to run people to and from if they don't want to ride.

I wasn't going to be i the area, but now it looks like this will be a good stop off for me on my way up from North Carolina on Saturday - Since I won't be registered for the rally, I will have camping gear and plan to go to the KOA and then come over to 'hang out' and party... Is the KOA walkable to the beemerville in case I have a beer or two? Anyone up for dinner at a local resturant Saturday night?

On Saturday evening, our folks will be enjoying a catered BBQ buffet (or vegetarian) dinner, presentation, and door prizes at the hotel.

BTW, you can still register for the rally and be a full participant in all the fun :D

I'm getting excited! I just talked a friend of mine in to coming. She came to Mortons Oktoberfest last fall and 2 weeks later came back and bought her bike from them so now she's coming to the rally! It's going to be fun! :mrgreen:

Stop by the cottage area Friday night and say hello!

lol jinx indeed

I'm the ultimate jinx - I'm planning on bringing my full complement of rain gear, pretty much guaranteeing it won't rain.
