2016 ALPINE VALLEY Charter Bus

Good evening.

Details below and attached on a charter bus for Alpine Valley leaving out of Milwaukee, WI. Please let me know if any questions either through here, personal email (referenced in attached document) or private message.

Thanks!
Mason



Charter Bus Company: Lamers Bus Lines
Cost Per Person: $120/Person

Included in the cost:
1) All charter bus transportation;
a. Travel from Milwaukee, WI to Pewaukee, WI
b. Travel to/from the shows each day/night at the Alpine Valley;
c. Travel from Pewaukee, WI back to Milwaukee, WA

Deposit Per Person: $60/Person at booking
Non-refundable, but transferable
Following deposit, you will have the opportunity to book Holiday Inn Pewaukee through online portal

PayPal Address:
masonmitsu@gmail.com
Will send a confirmation when any payments are received

Age Requirement: At least 18 years old; would consider younger if with an adult companion; Realize that most people will be drinking and “other” activities

Pewaukee, WI Hotel:
25 Hotel Rooms (7 Kings; 18 Double Queens) currently confirmed
Nightly rate of $99/night confirmed at Holiday Inn Pewaukee
No payment to hotel needed up front; Room list only needs to be finalized a month prior to trip

The itinerary below is tentative and subject to change as we decide on details. The price for the hotel location in Pewaukee, WI (approximately 30 minutes from the venue) is charging us a great nightly rate of $99. This is well below the rates shown on travel sites.

I will help match travelers who are traveling by themselves to share a hotel room, if you wish – just let me know.

The hotel is nearby some restaurants, Target and a grocery store in Pewaukee, so we will be able to pick up supplies easily and have some options for food. The hotel also offers a continental breakfast every morning, along with a bar and restaurant.


Thursday, June 30, 2016 – Milwaukee, WI


Currently, on your own for hotel in Milwaukee for Thursday night; however, I am looking into group rates in Milwaukee as well.

@1:10 PM Los Angeles Dodgers v. Milwaukee Brewers (Miller Park); Some of us are flying in early to attend the game

@ 8:00 PM Group Dinner @ TBD
Drinks before… drinks after… pending locations

Friday, July 1, 2016

Leaving from Milwaukee, WI to Pewaukee, WI to Alpine Valley
@ 10:30 AM Arrive at Hotel TBD (downtown Milwaukee) to load charter bus
@ 11:00 AM Leave from Hotel TBD for Pewaukee, WI
@ 11:45 AM Arrive in Pewaukee, WI – Holiday Inn
@ 1:00 PM Load bus for departure to Alpine Valley Music Theatre (grocery/Target stop if needed)
@ 2:30 PM Arrive Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Saturday, July 2, 2016

Pewaukee, WI to Alpine Valley

@ 1:00 PM Load bus for departure to Alpine Valley Music Theatre (grocery/Target stop if needed)
@ 2:30 PM Arrive Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Sunday, July 3, 2016

Back to Milwaukee, WI

@ 10:30 AM Load charter bus for departure to Milwaukee
@ 11:00 AM Leave from Hotel – Pewaukee, WI – Holiday Inn to Milwaukee
@ 12:00 PM Milwaukee Airport Drop-Off; At least one additional drop off downtown if guests staying an additional night

Currently, on your own for hotel in Milwaukee for Sunday night if remaining in town; however, I am looking into group rates.

We will leave approximately 30 minutes after the show completes every night (earlier if everyone gets back to the bus). At a certain point every night, we will have to leave the venue. It is your responsibility to be get back to the bus in a timely manner.

Recommendation will be to not make any flights before 2 PM on Monday out of Milwaukee, WI. I will be staying in Milwaukee, WI on Sunday night and will plan on dinner and drinks with whoever is remaining in town that evening.

If you are interested, please email me directly at either masonmitsu@gmail.com or my work email timothy_mason@uhc.com. I will add you to the Facebook group, answer any questions and once the deposit is received, I will reach out to you for your hotel booking confirmation.

I am happy to offer this as an option to camping or having to handle all of the transportation yourself if you drive out to Alpine Valley.
We had an amazing time last year doing this for the Gorge and hope to have a great time at Alpine Valley!

Thank you, Mason (bonesmcgee on antsmarching forum)

    Price seems steep, but from experience its a bitch organizing these things. Is there an option just to take it one of the days?

    It is definitely a bitch and this price is based on only 30 people doing the bus... the more people we get, the lower the price can go.

    You can definitely take the bus just one of the days from our hotel in Pewaukee.... I can put together some pricing for just from the hotel to the venue.

    Thanks for your interest

    Just so you know, we'll be staying at the hotel but driving there ourselves. So we will only be needing to and from the show.

    Do you still have that rate booked for the holiday inn? I could maybe help if we relocate to do just to and from the show. It'd have to be a Hilton chain.

    Hey! Just double-checking that it is possible to book the bus and possibly the hotel for Saturday only?

    Also, are you in Austin man?! I'm in Austin!

    i do still have the rate booked for the holiday inn..... if you could find a hilton with a decent rate for probably 10-15 rooms (I can't see us needing more than that)....

    Doesn't really matter where it is at as long as it is a decently short distance to the venue

    Yeah, we are finalizing details hopefully here in the next week or so.... waiting on some friends to decide what they are doing... but yes, i don't see that being a problem with just the bus and hotel for one day

    And yea, me and ExistenceNow are both here in Austin
