Title: HHH100 -- Reserve your spot NOW at the Lamar!
Post by FlyingLaZBoy on May 14th, 2013, 10:10am

For those looking for a FREE place to stay for HHH100, the Lamar Baptist Church does a pretty good job -- several of us have stayed there the past few years, and they get better every year.  You bring your own air mattress and sleeping bag, etc. -- the guys sleep in the Gym, the women sleep upstairs.  They provide pizza the night before, and a nice hot breakfast starting at 5AM, with full bathroom/shower facilities -- then it's an easy 2 -3 mile ride over to the start area (or you can drive over).  Yes, you might have to ride back, but.....

Here is a link to a photo file of the reservation form -- put down RBENT group, mail it in, and they'll attempt to group us together on the gym floor, for what it's worth.  Don't bother guessing the number in the group...

Oops, that email address isn't working. I've sent another to the church asking who to contact.

I tried using this email address also and it bounced back to me.  I just mailed in the form. I'm checking with Susan to see if she has another email address that will work for reservtions or if she just wants the forms mailed in.  Stay tuned.

correct email is kevin@lbcwf.org or josh@lbcwf.org.  Correct phone#940 723 4371 for the church office.

And then the lady at the office gave me a totally different email to use for the reservations:  aiky08@aol.com

So I guess you can try the email routes or just mail it in.
Vic

I've emailed my reservaiton in.

And the reply I got was that they are already full up and I could be on the waiting list.  Which is odd, since Dave put my name on the list last year at the close of HHH2012...

Vicki, Susan's email address is the aiky08@aol.com and she too said that they were full.  You need to email here and let her know that Dave put your name on the list last year.  Maybe there are duplicate bookings that are taking up some spaces.

I did that this morning Dianne, thanks.  I am waiting to hear from them again after they have a chance to recheck the lists.

What other free options are there for HHH overnighting?  I suppose I could try sleeping in the van if I found a safe place to park, or maybe haul a tent up there and camp in a state park?

I just sent my confirmation request to Susan.I'll be a little disappointed if she says I don't have one shen I saw here write it down in a book.

Oh my gosh, do I ever need spell check.  Sorry folks for the horrible post a minute ago.

I've seen campers and tents set up in the remote parking lots.  But maybe they're more diligent in enforcing the rules now.

I had forgotten about "pre-registering" last year....

I just now emailed mine to aiky@aol.com.  I got almost an instant reply that I was confirmed.  By the way women, make sure that you let them know that you are female.  The gym fills up fast for the guys but there always seems to be room upstairs for us.

I stayed there last year and the dinner the night before was spaghetti.  Nothing to write home about, but all you could/want to eat and same for breakfast!  Very nice place to stay if you can get in.  Try to mention RBENT, but don’t say anything about Paul or Bud…

Huh? No spaghetti at Lamar. They've brought in pizza for years.

The Spaghetti is at First Christian Church, or is it First Baptist?

Looks like work is going to interfere with my HHH this year -- I'll know for sure in a week or so.   >:(  If I can't go, my spot at the Lamar will be up for grabs.
