Official OMG 2018 Plan
Ya know the idea of hosting The OMG was to show the roads & fine eats here in the Ozarks.
Others are free to host a Rally in their part of the country.
*********************************************
This is the official OMG plan for 2018. Right or Wrong...
I am making the final decision and changing OMG back to the orginal date June 13 - 17, 2018.
I had to scrap the Campground idea. There were issues that I could not get ironed out so... New Plan!
I have blocked off 20 rooms at Motel 62 in Eureka Springs, AR.
Negotiated a Special rate...
Standard rooms with 2 queen beds (4 person) $59.
King jacuzzi room $69.
Free Breakfast & Wifi
Pool
Lots of room to park even if you are traveling with RV.
Fire Pit and plenty room to relax on site.
Pet Friendly
large dogs welcome $20 - small dogs $10.
(SORRY BEST I COULD GET)
http://www.theeurekaspringsmotel.com/eu ... lrooms.htm
Book now with your room preference for Ozark Mountains Gathering.
48 hour before arrival cancellation policy.
******************************************************
ALSO IF YOU ARE TRAVELING WITH RV OR WANT A TENT SITE INSTEAD... JUST EAST OF HOTEL IS A CAMPGROUND CONVENIENT TO OMG!

Re: Official OMG 2018 Plan
The block of rooms is reserved under what name? OMG? Never mind! I read again. OMG.

It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury…

Signifying monkey, stay up in your tree. Always lying and signifying, but you better not monkey with me.

Wished I could go, but on the railroad, you have to bid for vacation weeks long before you have any idea what you are going to do with your vacation.

June 14th
Ride thru Eureka Springs, with block after block of one-of-a-kind shops, boutiques, historic hotels and unique bed and breakfast inns, and rustic cabins.
If there is interest we will ride toward The Golden Gate of the Ozarks before heading onward on MO 86 and via a date with the Peel’s Ferry.
Lunch at Ozark Café in Jasper which is over 100 years old (est. 1909) that features unique antiques plus walls adorned with photographs and newspaper articles of people, things and places of a time long gone while serving some mighty fine food. Ride back thru the beautiful Arkansas country side with an evening relaxing around the pool or fire pit at the hotel.
Historical Tidbits…
Peels Ferry, A transport ride across a beautiful section of Bull Shoals Lake. The Ferry is open daily from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. They used to be a lot of ferries in the state. They had names like Spring Bank, Toad Suck, Guion, and Moro Bay. Peel is the last one in operation by the State of Arkansas. Sam Peel was a storekeeper who got permission to operate a post office back in the late 1860's. The name of the town was Needmore, but Sam Peel named the post office after himself. The town changed its name to match that of the post office, which is just as well since there are two other towns in Arkansas named Needmore.
The town of Jasper, sitting right in the middle of one of the most scenic drives in the nation. Scenic 7 runs from the Louisiana border to Bull Shoals lake near the Missouri state line, passing through both the Ouachita and Ozark Mountains.

The Hub was sold to new owners and from my initial contact I am not sure they are as easy to work with now. I got the impression that views are family friendly but not necessarily biker friendly. Plus they are now in the middle of remolding and I was not sure it would work as far as our needs.
