Must mention 'BMW Rally Special Rate' when calling. If any problems, speak with Diane Cobb or Vanita. Call 912-786-4591.

            FRIDAY NIGHT: We'll again meet and greet at Stingray's Restaurant and Bar next door to the Dunes Inn If this will be your first time, don't be bashful. We pretty much take over Stingray's so almost anyone there will be a friend. Walk up and introduce yourself. SATURDAY: This year we hope to have two different guided rides. They'll go different directions and run at different speeds, but hopefully meet up for lunch somewhere in the country. Of course anyone is welcome to plan their own ride and visit downtown Savannah which includes one of the largest historic districts in the country. River Street will again have First Saturday and downtown will be decked out for Christmas for their 2009 Christmas on the River & Lighted Holiday Parade. We'll again have the Saturday night low country boil at the gym a few blocks from the Dunes Inn. Start cooking about 4 or 5 and eating between 6 and 7. There is no cost for anything except what you eat Saturday night at the boil. We hope to keep the price per dinner around $20 but that could change depending on the price of shrimp when we buy them Saturday. SUNDAY: if you get up early enough, you really need to eat breakfast at the breakfast club. It's sort of across the street from the motel. Please let us know of any questions: Jim Connelly, email: 912-604-3927 Jerry Duke, e-mail: 912-856-0358
