Im thinking sometime in the first 2 weeks of August and Avi sounds good . Who do I call about a block of rooms ,how many do I have to commit to to get a good rate and do you think I could sell them all.

Gord,
You don't have to buy the rooms, you only make the arrangements for the group rate, it's up to the individuals to actually reserve/purchase the rooms. The minimum is 10 rooms and I don't think you'd have an issue doing that. Here's the contact info:

I called the AVI and they have a new policy. instead of 10 rooms for a discount you have to book 15 rooms and I had to put up a $250.00 deposit to do it. The rates are thursday Aug 18 $26.10
Friday Aug 19 $80.10
Saturday Aug 20 $89.10
Sunday Aug 21 $26.10
Not sure if enough will be interested but Im commited to coming and if we cant get enough we have to add 10% to those prices. I will be posting a reservation code when they send it to me tomorrow
-
The first weekend of August is the Long Beach Races.....just dont double book the events ;)

I'm still in! But "Policy"??? Ask Rivertard and my son about "Policy" there............... :sly:
Not sure, but I'm willing to bet we had 30 rooms or so last time I was involved in this.

They claim big changes have been made and people who booked 10 rooms would only sell 6 so hence the new policy. also the name Skip gave me for a contact no longer is with the Avi

getting no cooperation from avi. they told me last wed they would do it up and email me. I called fri no reply called this morning talked to the same girl as last wed she said they were going to email it but forgot or something that was at 9.00 am still nothing now. I have to put up a non refundable $250 deposit and commit to 15 rooms the new minimum and the girl whose number you gave me does not work there anymore so far Im unimpressed with the Avi

No, the 19/20/21 of August

heres a suggestion...move it to big river. i talked to the bearded old man when i left there today. they were very pleased with our group and are very welcoming to have us back.
-
Good idea.
-
I like that idea Brad! It'd be way cheaper too
-
wonder if i can get my pyle going by then...i wanna go back and kick that place in the arse, because it kicked me in the arse pretty bad this weekend...thanks again brad for getting my boat and omars boat out of a really really bad situation
-
Big river again sounds good to me =)
-
works for me Brad let me know who to contact and I will set it up. the Avi dont seem to give a shit if we come or not
-
I vote br as well I'm really liking that place!
-
I'm in , Let's do this!
-
any news on rooms?????

any news on rooms?????
I just left them another message, if I don't hear back from them today, I'll call her boss

Just an idea here guys. But the "CP Regatta" is on Aug 13 &14. I went to it last year and it was a great show, lots of boats not just CP's but everything, nice rigs everywhere.
My suggestion is that IF this trip is being moved to Big River that you guys maybe think about pushing it out to 9/13 and 9/14.
You can boat down to where the Regatta is going on from Big River and there is a gas pump on the water along the way.
Not trying to change this all up but just throwing out an idea for you guys.

-

Is there room in the back corner of that sandbar for those of us with "not so nice" of rigs?
-
I vote "[√] NO, on making it the same weekend as the regatta.

Agreed. I also say we leave it up to Gord as to the location, hell this is his vacation he's invited us all on!
-
big river is always good for me... well this time anyways .
I agree with omar, alot of those guys let the keyboard cowboying get to their heads and wont even look at someone elses boat while drinking a beer.

Where?
-
lost lake used to have gas, i dont know if they do anymore
-
I heard the regatta is at aha Quinn this year and that's a long ways DOWN river from br. I say keep it at the original date at br. I already have plans to be at twin palms for the regatta weekend.
-
Aug 13 and 14 is too early for me to get that far south still have to do my farmer impression for the first 2 weeks in Aug
-
I'll. Be there gord!
-
no big deal to me fellas, just throwing out an idea, wanted to see what you guys though. And Gord, I hope you don't feel like I have attempted to modify your vacataion.
There is a gas pump at Water Wheel, wich is between Big River and Aha Quin.
Moving on....

Ok, kids here's the skinny on Big River Inn:
They have 13 rooms available for August 18/19/20 that's Thursday/Friday/Saturday. I have them on hold for us as of right now, I told them I'd call them back tomorrow with a final count of how many we'll actually need. Same deal as last time, we get the tribal rate, blah blah blah. So I NEED to know who is COMMITTED to this trip!
