WHEN:
Weekend of July 14th, 2011
Official Gathering dates:
begins friday the 15th and ends sunday the 17th
(Wed 7/13 thru Mon 7/18)
WHERE:
Barnetts Motel
31257 St. Rt. 62
Salem, OH 44460
1-330-337-8758
RATES:
$48.00 PER NIGHT PER ROOM no matter how many people we pack in one. PLUS TAX
(makes it $51.36 per night slightly higher than last year)
This is a decent rate and this Motel is in a semi private setting 15 minutes from both Salem and Alliance Metropolitan areas.
There are both smoking and non smoking rooms available and make sure you are sure about bed sizes.
When I called and spoke to the man, he said he would try to make sure that he kept us all together but time is of the essence. Ensure you call and say you are with the Webmaze group that attend every year. Aim for the rooms with numbers 110 and above...that keeps us at one end of the motel. First come First Serve.
I recommend people rooming together and sharing the cost of the room..
The pool, this year is still up in the air. The health dept wants it brought up to code, with a bottom drain and other things. They gave the motel an extension on their certificate last year because of grandfather clauses. The owner doesn't know if he will be able to get another extension this year.
The quote above is still in effect. He told me once again that there was no guarantee on the pool being open this year but he did hope it would be.
Bring your suits anyways...just in case. If the pool is not open, nothing says I cant drown your ass in a kiddie pool....ahem....I mean the pool shark.
Contact the Motel and book your reservations. A credit card security deposit of one night's stay is required to hold the room. Any cancellations must be made 24 hours in advance to avoid loss of deposit.
WHEN YOU BOOK YOUR RESERVATION, PLEASE:
If you are sharing a room, only ONE of you call... He gets confused, marks off a room for each person that calls and ends up with empty rooms he could have filled otherwise.
Once you have your reservation, make sure you let me know the dates and number of people and names and even the room number if you requested a specific one, so that I can keep track and reconfirm everything in person with him closer to the gathering.
Also, for newbies, a side note. We collect 10 dollars a day per person, to buy the foods, propane for grills etc..
Rags and woobie will be in 119
Raz and lure will be in 117
