Wildflower Rally
Once again, we will meet at the River Inn Resort in Hunt, TX for a few days of riding central Texas twisty roads, comparing farkles, looking at wild flowers (hopefully there will be some), and putting off doing your taxes a little longer.
Lodging The River Inn Resort and Conference Center near Hunt, TX is holding a block of rooms below the dam (east end). There are only a limited number of two bed rooms left below the dam. If you absolutely need a two bed room, ask if they have any above the dam (west end). Most single bed rooms have a pull out sofa bed as well.
Single bed rooms are at the weekday rate of $120/night, and the two bed rooms are $150/night. Additionally there is a $25 resort fee per reservation.
Booking online will not automatically give you the COG rate, so call them at (830) 238-4226 to make your reservations. Rates are good for Thursday, March 21st as well if you choose to arrive a day early, as many do.
The River Inn Resort has requested reservations be made by January 1st, which I think is ridiculous, but try if you can.
Trailers
There is some limited parking at the west end of the facility for parking larger trailers. Parking or driving out in the grass is prohibited because of septic field damage. Do not assume that a late Friday night arrival will have room for your large enclosed trailer. Most motorcycle trailers can be accommodated if they are detached from the tow vehicle.
Meals
As of December 2023, we are planning 3 meals.
Donations for food costs will be suggested at $30 per person. Those not wanting pork for religious/other reasons should contact the host so we can arrange a suitable alternative.
Since the rooms at the River Inn have stoves and utensils for cooking, you may wish to prepare your own meals (restaurants are many miles away with a twisty deer populated road as the only access to and from the River Inn).
If you would rather not participate in the meals, please let the host know this so that excess food costs are not incurred. Thank You!
Registration and Additional Fees Registration fees for this event are $15 for members and $20 for non-members to cover insurance. A separate donation of $30/person is also requested at the event to cover the costs of food. When you arrive, we ask everyone to check-in and a sign an event waiver. Those refusing to sign the waiver will be asked to leave the rally.
We're asking everyone to register online to provide a headcount and help with planning. Registration deadline is 11:59 pm Wednesday, March 20th.
I hope to see you there! Until then, please be safe.
