I will have our pricing the first of the week there managers are off....

This a weekend gig, same hotel each year,,, Plenty of parking,,, Walking distance to Beautiful down town Helen Ga.
If anybody needs it, the hotel for the last two years was the "Motel 6", and the number is (706) 878-8888. I have been called and notified they remember us, but I never gave a final date. They will give you a good rate if somebody calls and lets them know its under DMR Truck Club.
The now firm dates are Oct. 24th (Friday - Sunday a.m) - 26th.......

This is the first year my schedule has allowed us to attend and the wife and I are looking forward to it. We'll be traveling Hwy. 441 early Sat. morning. Maybe those of us coming from that direction can hook up in either Athens or Commerce for a caravan. Anybody in?

I've been trying to get through to the above listed number for the past 24 hours (I'm a shift worker) with no luck. It simply rings until you give up and disconnect. I've verified the number with the Motel 6 website and it is indeed the correct number. Anyone know what gives?

Afraid not, I will be booking my room tomorrow and will ask for you.

I finally reached Jennifer today. When I inquired as to the difficulty in getting Through, Jennifer explained that following a storm, part of the building structure fell onto their natural gas connection causing a leak which forced an evacuation. All is well now and I made our reservation. Until recently, we owned property outside of Helen near Brass town Bald and have attended numerous Helen Octoberfest's. But as I said earlier, this is a first for the L get together and we're thoroughly looking forward to it.
