Hi All,

Well, we now have an official agreement with “Sun Mountain Lodge” for “The Run to the Sun on July 26th & 27th, 2008.

The total number of rooms available SML are 15. Four(4) the rooms have already been taken by some eager beavers! If you wish to participate in the run you need to make your reservations right away before all the rooms are gone, there are only eleven(11) left. Check in will be at 4:00 PM.

To make your reservations, call Sun Mountain Lodge at (509) 996-2211. Tell them you want to reserve a room for one night on July 26th, 2008, and reference the block rooms being held for the “NW Cobra Club”.

We will try and set up a dinner reservation for all in the Wolf Creek Bar and Grill there at the resort. We may be able arrange some appetizers.

Just a reminder, normally Sun Mountain Lodge requires a 2 night minimum stay on the weekend, so we’ve lucked out.

Best Regards,
Dale & Gloria McBain

________________________________________
Who is interested in making a run to Sun Mountain this summer. It would be a weekend run.

Leave Saturday morning take Hwy 20 to Winthrop, then on to Sun Mountain for dinner and spend the night. Leave the next morning for Leavenworth for lunch. Continue on to Monroe, WA where we split up and go our separate ways.

If enough people are interested I will see what kind of hotel rate can be arranged.

The view from the hotel dinning room is spectacular day or night.

Input is appreciated regarding timing and routing
