If you have a ride to offer or are looking for a ride to share, post here.

If you are looking to share a motel room, post it here.

And, if you have a room to offer in your home for rent or trade, you may be able to arrange an recripical offer at a contest you attend. That's up to you.

ESL can not gurantee the character of the people who post here. We all know that sailplane contest flyers are obsessive/compulsive types so take that into considertion. On the other hand, talking planes sure makes the trip go faster.

I tried out a new place this past weekend. the Mel-Dor Motel
http://www.meldormotelpa.com/
610-367-2625

This is a small family operated motel of about 25 rooms. Noting fancy but it was clean and the rooms were newly redone. AC, cable TV and the bed was reasonably comfortable.

I have arranged a special rate for the ESL for the October EOS.

Room with 1 king bed is $51+tax
Room with 2 double beds is $55 +tax The two bed room is a bit larger.

Located in New Berlinville, PA, off Rt 100, New Berlinville Exit
8 Miles to Pottstown, 5 Miles to Bally, 2 Miles to Bechtelsville, 1 mile north of Boyertown and 20 miles south of Allentown and Philadelphia.

Note that my GPS was not able to identify New Berlinville. I used Boyertown and N. Reading Road as the target for the GPS then used the map provided by the Motel for the last mile. Worked fine.

George Hill and Phil Barnes stayed there as well so you can get their take, but I just booked a room for October.

I just checked with the Mel Dor Hotel - They will honor a special rate of $57 for the ESL if you mention the ESL and my name.
However they have no rooms for the weekend of 8/28, 29. They are sold out due to a car show in the area.

For the weekend of 8/28-9 I booked a room at The Cab Motel, 215-679 5955 for $70+tax. http://www.cabmotel.com/ They still have rooms available. No special rate for ESL. I have no idea what the place is like, but if there are no rooms in the area, you may want to grab a room here. He says he is about 15 minutes from Birdsboro but map quest says more like 30.
