20TH ANNIVERSARY RUN FOR THE HILLS
« on: January 06, 2015, 10:21:30 pm »
I have made arrangements with the Helendorf Inn in Helen, Ga. to be the host hotel for the 20th Anniversary of Run For The Hills.  The Helendorf was the host for the first event. 

As part of the 20th Anniversary, we will be traveling to The Tail of The Dragon.  The event will take place during the beginning of the OktoberFest celebration in Helen, so there will be lots of festivities to partake in. 

Below is some paraphrased information provided by the Helendorf Inn.


*They have a variety of rooms blocked for our group for September 18 & 19, 2015.
*These are based on a 2 night minimum stay.
*Each guest may call to make their own reservation as part of our block.
*A deposit in the amount of 1 night is required to guarantee each reservation.
*After July 30, 2015, they will release any of the room block that have not been individually reserved.
*Cancellations must be received at least 10 days prior to arrival for the deposit to be refundable.

Standard Rooms = $114.00 + tax per night  (Most of this room type has No Elevator Access/ Stairs are Required)
If you need a Handicap Equipped Room, please advise and ask for the special rate.
Riverfront Balcony = $139.00 + tax per night
Riverfront Patio = $149.00 + tax per night

*Rates quoted are for 2 adults traveling without any children or pets.
*Pet Friendly rooms are very limited.  The Pet fee is $20.00 per pet per night.
*Tax is 15%

Again, be sure to ask for the Georgia Fiero rates.  If you have any problems, ask for General Manager Catherine Gay Cleiman.


For reservations please call 706-878-2271 or 800-445-2271

There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

I've sent out invitations to the NIFE club, NTFC club, VAFA and NEFA.  That's Northern Illinois, North Texas, Virginia and New England.  Response from our Florida brethren is looking good, too.

I thought it was a given that the East Tennessee Fiero Club would be there.  No invitation needed.

For the April 18 Trial Run to set up the route sheet, we'll have to determine where we will all meet up and at what time.  We can discuss that at the March meeting.

Frank, how many have you all mustered up so far to make the September event?

Some of our members have asked that I set up a Scenic Tour for those that don't want to go to The Dragon.  SO, this year there will be an alternate route.  Because we're in the mountains, there's no way to avoid some good twisties, but I will try to set up something so that the sightseers can have their vistas and return to the host hotel at about the same time everyone else does.

I have an Alternate Sightseer's Route laid out with gas stops and lunch stop.

Now, who's going to lead it?  When we do the scouting run, I'll take you on the alternate route to familiarize you with it,.  The regular group can take the main route.

For those who might want to take the Sightseer's Tour, what would you be interested in seeing?  Would you prefer to just take a leisurely drive through the mountainous countryside or do you want tourist sites? 

If you wish to remain anonymous with your comments, use the SURVEY username and password as in the A SURVEY thread.  That can be used anywhere on the forum.

A bump and a reminder that you must have your reservations prior to July 30 in order to get the special rates.  There are only a limited number of rooms blocked for us but if we get them filled prior to July 30, I can get more blocked for us.

Olejoedad from Capital City Fieros tells me they may be bringing as many as 10 Fieros down for the event.  I think we should offer a nice Club Participation Trophy to the club that has the most cars.  Can

Can the Georgia Fiero Club beat 10 cars this year?
