Latest lodging information:

*Make sure to mention the Buggy Bash to receive your discount!*

http://www.shalimarresortmotel.com/index.html

Spoke with LBJ (Joecat) about the resort and it checks out to be a really nice place with a recent renovation. Did I mention some killer prices? Check this out...

The following is the rate information we spoke about over the phone on August 3, 2010.

Date of Arrival: October 22, 2010
Date of Departure: October 24, 2010

For up to 30 Rooms (Please let us know how many we need to hold for you as soon as possible)

Rates per room
$120.00 for 2 nights for a couple
$130.00 for 2 nights for a family with 2 adults & 1 or 2 children

Any additional nights added to the 2 night stay will be as follows:
$50.00 per night for 2 adults
$60.00 for a family with 2 adults & 1 or 2 children

Thank you very much for your interest in our establishment,

Maria

So as you can see we need some numbers now for Maria. This place is located 1 block from the beach and again 7 blocks south of the pier. The possibility of our group being the only people in the building is very good. They actually do close for the winter but will open if there is a good turn-out. Maria has stated that she will be open for us.

PLEASE CHECK THE POLL! Let's get her some numbers soon.

I will be inquiring about the kitchenettes for those looking to cook. Anyone with questions feel free to ask!

cheezycheese - 6-8-2010 at 07:56 AM

Hey Scotty, you better be there. Even if you have to ride with a pegleg... :singing:

frangram - 6-8-2010 at 10:16 AM

Todd,
The place looks very nice, Mary walked by it last spring and commented how nice it was. I will pass the info along to the other Blokarters who attended in the past.

Thanks for putting your time and effort into organizing the event and lodging.

Fran

Todd - 6-8-2010 at 10:18 AM

Yeah Scotty we have plenty of tandems set up so you could sit back and ride or put up a kite to join in.

No worries Fran; thanks for passing the info along to the crew.

Chad - 6-8-2010 at 11:14 AM

Voted,

Thx Todd!

snowspider - 6-8-2010 at 05:02 PM

1 adult kid and 2 maybe 3 real kids. Thanks Todd you do nice work.

Tibi - 8-8-2010 at 01:37 PM

Todd,
Thanks for the time invested in this.
I'll be there with another friend, for two nights.

2 adults / 2 nights (22nd and 23rd)

I also voted up top...

ragden - 9-8-2010 at 05:55 AM

Sweet. Dropped my note up top. Thanks Todd!!!
:smilegrin:

edit: wife will, most likely, be with me...

rdavis - 9-8-2010 at 10:46 AM

Put myself down for 4 nights. Rich will be crashing with me for at least the two weekend nights, maybe longer. Thanks for the leg work Todd!

Todd - 9-8-2010 at 12:32 PM

First off... You're welcome! I don't mind doing this if it makes a smooth running event for everybody.

Secondly I just got off the phone with Maria; she states that most all the rooms will have a kitchenette in them. We will more than likely be on the 3rd or 4th floor to keep us together and the pool may or may not be heated at that time (weather related) Good news! The BBQ pits will still be in use so time to get your grill on.

Maria is very excited to have us at her resort and even wants to come down to try out some kites. How cool is that? Oh, and when it comes time to book the rooms it will be done on an individual basis, I'll let you know when.

Until then... is it October yet?

shehatesmyhobbies - 9-8-2010 at 01:38 PM

Can't wait to throw some more shrimp on the barby! Oh and to buggy!

kiteplace - 10-8-2010 at 10:27 PM

Hey Todd,
This place works for me. I'm in for 4 nights.
Thanks for searching out a good motel.
I'm stoked!

flyguy0101 - 12-8-2010 at 07:20 AM

@ silver-
just got the bad news and i will not be able to make the fall bash so count me out for sharing the room-

@cheese
Guess i wont see you this time but should be ready to roll in the spring- having ACL reconstruction surgery on my knee 9/2 and Doc said NO kiting for 3-6 months :no:

- no driving for 4-6 weeks- i guess when we meet in the spring you will be showing me what to do:roll:

Really bummed that i wont make it but looking forward to the spring to do it again

shehatesmyhobbies - 12-8-2010 at 12:57 PM

Scott it stinks that you won't be able to make it for the bash! Even more that you have to have surgery! See you in the spring! Or maybe you can make another trip off season with us when your knee heals a little!

rickgi - 17-8-2010 at 12:07 PM

My room is reserved! Chose a townhouse in case the family units decide to come. Looking forward to the new (and better) crib.

bigben91682 - 17-8-2010 at 06:26 PM

2 for 2 nights, Friday and Saturday. I'll be booking soon. Thanks Todd

frangram - 18-8-2010 at 08:41 AM

Mary and I are booked in for three nights, will be bringing 3 Blokarts, a tamden bar & Shadow (side car) to help win more converts to Blokarting. I also will have spare tires and tubes along with other parts to take care of emergency's with me.

Fran:cool2:

Todd - 18-8-2010 at 09:19 AM

Fran, I sent you an email back...

Please don't start booking until I hear back from Maria on how she wants to proceed.

I'll know something by next week, thank you.

bugymangp - 18-8-2010 at 09:41 AM

i thought it was to early to book.
i just put in for my vacation that week.

Todd - 23-8-2010 at 11:08 AM

Ready to go, you may start the reservation process!

*Make sure to mention the Buggy Bash to receive your discount!*

Maria mentioned that she is getting excited to see us there.

kteguru - 23-8-2010 at 11:44 AM

I'm booked for the 19-25th :thumbup:

. Sweedish masage on Tues/Wed...........kiting the rest of the time :smilegrin:

. See everyone there:wee::wee::wee:

WELDNGOD - 23-8-2010 at 03:08 PM

Hey Dean, be sure to ask for the massage w/ a happy ending.:evil::wee:

sorry, I couldn't resist... I know ,I know ,I'm a bad influence. Waddaya expect from a veteran shipyard worker.

Anyway , as it stands right now I'm in for 4 nights, wed-sat leaving sunday. { Fingers very tightly crossed}

Todd - 23-8-2010 at 03:25 PM

Dean, are you serious about the massage? How much and did you have to schedule an appointment?

shehatesmyhobbies - 23-8-2010 at 04:31 PM

Good one Donnie! :lol:

shehatesmyhobbies - 23-8-2010 at 04:33 PM

Just trying to get to page two! Pleas turn the page!

rdavis - 23-8-2010 at 04:42 PM

bump for page 2

WELDNGOD - 23-8-2010 at 06:41 PM

Hey dudes ,go to edit profile and change your posts per page. mine is set to 1000. prob solved.

kteguru - 23-8-2010 at 10:25 PM

The only happy ending I'm worried about WG is when my back is happy with the massage. The last massage therapist I went to massaged so damn hard she just about came out the other side:o. If I wanted my spleen squashed I would have asked for that. My internal organs felt soar for days. I didn't ask for a price Todd, I wasn't terribly worried about that. If she leaves my spleen alone I'm happy to pay her whatever she wants. Maria said no advance reservations are necessary. Massages can be scheduled upon arrival. If you want I can call her back and ask for a group rate for all BuggyBash attendees :smilegrin:

Maven454 - 24-8-2010 at 03:31 AM

Question for those of you who've made a reservation. Is this like the Apollo where they want part of the money ahead of time?

rdavis - 24-8-2010 at 05:42 AM

Thanks for the tip Donnie!

Jovver - 24-8-2010 at 05:42 AM

I reserved last night! For 2 people and 4 nights they wanted a $120 deposit.

rdavis - 24-8-2010 at 09:06 AM

Reservations made! Rich and I will be there Wednesday!

Maven454 - 25-8-2010 at 03:44 PM

Reservations made. I'll show up on Thursday.

Jovver - 26-8-2010 at 05:32 AM

After I made my deposit the woman that I talked to (don't know exactly who it was) said that an email confirmation would be sent out and that it needed to be signed and faxed back to them or sent by mail. How long will it take for said email to arrive? Did anyone else already get their email confirmation?

Maven454 - 26-8-2010 at 05:37 AM

She didn't say anything to me about the email needing to be signed and sent back. I haven't seen the email confirmation yet though.

Maven454 - 26-8-2010 at 06:08 AM

I just got the email and the PDF tells you to print, sign, and fax the Word document back.

dtoast - 26-8-2010 at 08:37 AM

WELDNGOD - 27-8-2010 at 08:54 PM

pokitetrash - 15-9-2010 at 01:15 PM

2 people-- Frankiter and Pokitetrash, for Thursday and Friday night! Leaving late Saturday afternoon. Can't wait to play up North. I figure it will be a nice change from the boring 80 degrees we'll probably have here in the fall....

rocfighter - 15-9-2010 at 02:50 PM

Hey man I'm glad to see you guys are making it. I was just thinking about E-mailing you.

pokitetrash - 15-9-2010 at 06:26 PM

Yea Roc, looking forward to see you again and visiting some fellow Yankees! Been living in Sc so long I almost forgot how to say "How You doin?!'"
