Default Re: Northeast HUMMER Event, Maine: 6/25-6/27

Estimated ballpark costs for the Sunday River event below:

Drive Core cost for 6/26-6/27: $195 per Truck + 1 Driver. Includes Saturday breakfast, box lunch, Trail fees, Dinner, and 1 room on Saturday night at the Summit Resort (2 queen beds, up to 4 guests per room). Also includes Sunday morning group breakfast.

Guest Cost: Guests $75 each; this includes Saturday breakfast, box lunch, passenger trail fee, dinner, and Sunday morning breakfast. Up to 3 guests can stay in the room purchased under the Driver Core fee above.

Additional Rooms: Additional rooms can be purchased for Friday, Saturday, Sunday nights, (or more) at the special rate of $99 including tax and all fees, for up to 4 people per room, as long as they are booked through the event.

Activities: Golf, Canoeing, Flyfishing, Mountain Biking, Paintball, Shopping -- on Sunday there will be time to enjoy a number of additional activities at or near the resort -- these will be available at discounted pricing and/or no charge (varies by activity and number of interested people - more details to come on this)

In short, if a couple comes to the event, the core cost would be $195 (driver + truck), 1 guest at $75 = $270 for two adults including room and board, all meals on Saturday, plus breakfast on Sunday, and all trail fees. Add $75 per person for up to two more guests... after that, you will probably need to pay for an additional room for the next 4 guests, etc.

There will also be cash bars available Friday and Saturday night. The fees also cover our group set-up fees, etc.
If you do the math, this a tremendous value at a quality resort, and I am still working on some vendors/sponsors to try to bring even more value to the event for participants. If you know of a potential sponsor who might contribute some value to this event for our members, let me know and I will contact them!

I am also working with the staff to potentially upgrade the Saturday night dinner to include driving up the mountain to the peak for an upgraded dinner/bar.

$99 per night (including all taxes and fees) for additional nights is a STEAL for those of you who want to stay longer -- as long as they are consecutive nights before or after the Saturday night that is in the core event fees, they will honor that rate.

These are estimated costs, and are subject to change, but I hope that answers some initial questions -- let me know if you need specific details. Some of the details will depend upon our sign up numbers -- more info on that soon to follow.

Thanks for your patience everyone - it is happening, slowly but surely
Post here if you are in! As always, feel free to email me with questions, etc.
