2018 Big Lynn Lodge Registration
« on: January 12, 2018, 09:27:18 pm »

It is my pleasure to announce the opening of Registration for MSTA's 2018 Big Lynn Lodge Event.

Registration for the 2018 Big Lynn Lodge will open January 29, 2018. Brenda will be manning the phone 800-654-5232. Note: That Brenda will come in that week only Monday through Thursday from 9:00AM to 3:00PM EST. She will only work these hours for those four days or until all the rooms for this years BLL event sell out. After that week she will be in the office Monday and Thursday 9:00AM to 3:00PM only. Once the Big Lynn Lodge sells out for our event there will be rooms available at the three overflow hotels within 3 miles.

Once again this year we will have the Alligators Blues band playing at the Big Lynn Lodge Friday evening. Also Anne Marie LaFrance will be set up to do free massages Friday evening and Saturday evening. I'm sure Anne will have some special treat for us for Saturday morning before you leave for your ride.

I hope you are looking forward to the 2018 Big Lynn Lodge Ride as much as I am.

Update!! Some big changes!

I am lowering this year’s BLL MSTA Registration by $5!

Note: Do not send me your registration until you get a room! AND you can’t even try to get a room until January 29th. And now that I’m lowering the registration fee by $5 the current form is incorrect. Doug Pippin, who has done my web sit, my registration form AND turned all the routes into GPS for this event is currently out of town. He said he would try to update the form from his laptop when he has an opportunity. So be patient!

Online Registration:
Also Harry Hemstreet is setting up online registration for this year’s BLL event! Harry said it wouldn’t take long to set up. And as soon as it’s set up I will get the link here!

I just heard on TV that in Minnesota, we call that great, only 6 more weeks of winter.  It will be over in mid-March.
After the past several weeks, I am looking forward to less snow, (last week, we had 18" in less than 24hr and blowing) and also many below zero days.
Not to worry, it will be all melted and green in Minnesota and La Crosse by STAR in June.

Update:

As of yesterday there was ONLY ONE room remaining to be sold and the 2018 Big Lynn Lodge will be FULL/Sold Out! However there are two other hotels within 3 or 4 miles that have said they still have rooms available. Note: The third facility the Switzerland Inn is sold out as they have a Corvette rally at there facility the same weekend.

Doug Pippin will be updating the website giving all the information on the overflow hotels. NOTE: VERY IMPORTANT! If you get a room at one of the other hotels but want to dine with us please call the Big Lynn Lodge and tell them that as they need to plan for additional meals. If you are not staying at the Big Lynn there is an additional fee for each meal you share with us. Once you pay for those meals the Big Lynn will provide vouchers for you to use for your meals.

The Big Lynn Lodge will start a cancellation list. So if someone cancels they can call you so you can get a room there.

Remember the Big Lynn is still closed for the winter season. Brenda will be at the Big Lynn on Monday and Thursday 9:00AM to 3:00PM Eastern time. They reopen on March 15th for the 2018 season.

The Big Lynn Lodge phone numbers: 800-654-5232, 828-765-4257
