This year's Spring Ride and Rally will be hosted by Wally Long in Monnet, MO... below are the details.
We have 20 rooms blocked for MBBF at the Quality Inn in Mount Vernon, Missouri. They have blocked a mix of single kings and double queens for May 9 and 10. The rate for both types will be 69.99 plus tax with no extra charge for extra people. They will hold this block of rooms until 1 month prior, April 9. After that they will still offer the rate but no guarantee of availability. Folks will need to call 417-466-4511 and mention MBBF/Missouri Baptist Bikers for the rate. They do have a continental breakfast. There are a couple of good breakfast places in town if someone wants a bigger breakfast. Also a McD's close by.
We have Confirmed also that Baptist Hill Campground will have hotel-style rooms available as well. These are 2 twin beds per room. $19/person. No linen provided. However, if anyone wants to utilize this, we, personally, have several sets of twin sheets and blankets that we are happy to provide. Baptist Hill number is 417-466-3034 (office) or the camp administrator, Jim Lovercamp, at 417-489-0855.
We plan to go to Monett (30 miles away) for dinner on Thursday evening at the Bayou. It is a Cajun style restaurant and very good. Friday after the ride, we will have a burger cookout at Wally's home (his bacon/cheese infused burgers!) with all of the normal fixins for such a meal. Wally livs about 3.5 miles from the hotel. He will provide all of the food. Folks can donate to help with the costs.
