2018 Lake Powell Lodging

[SteveJ]

I used mine when I signed up for VA benefits, have VA Id but have not a clue where the DD214 is.
How close are you to choosing dates?

[SteveJ]

Went back a re-read requirements. I served but did not retire from military.
Looks like I would not be eligible for any discount.

[IAMMAC]

So I called to see what was actually required for proof of military service. They, Aramark, said a DD214, or an active military ID. I do in fact have my DD214. Does anyone else have one?  If not, I'm willing to book the trailers under my name so we can all save some money. It's a 20% discount. I know it's a long ways out, but I love this trip, and for sure will be going back.

I also have my DD214 and a retired ID.  Wonder if they would take that.....can't have one without the other.

So, some of us that attend this trip yearly were at the BHCC and discussed plans for next year. We are trying to compile a list of who will for sure go, so we can start planning on trailer reservations. The dates we are targeting are April 28th through May 5th. We should have a better number by the end of the week, so we can start going forward.

I'd like to go again for half week Tue-Sat.

[sparkchaser]

I went ahead and reserved two trailers for the week of April 28th through May 5th.

Here is the confirmed list, as of now:

Sparkchaser
Fishman
CousinLLL
FishHawk
Mike and Debbie
Steve Dosset
Scott Wisniewski

I spoke to Rich Wheat (WheatThin) and he said he was going to get a trailer for the same week as well. Sounded like he was going to have a full trailer with Kyle (Holzie), and other friends.

[SteveJ]

Checked with partner and he wants to go the middle of May.
So I am out.

[OneBlade]

Timbo says he wants to go, expect him to be Tue-Sat like last year.  I'm in as well.

I have a friend (Geoff) from my old job sounds interested.  I can get him to commit if needed but unsure where we are with room in trailers.  I can do front room cot like last year.  I'd rather go cheap than get another trailer if possible.  However if we have enough for Tue-Sat, we can get another trailer.  I don't mind reserving now either assuming full refund if I cancel before 30 or less days.

[FishMan]

Alan is interested in Tuesday through Sunday as well, he drove up alone last year. That might work for partial week trailer and gas savings.  I'll give him your # and u guys can see if it would work out. He's ex military as well for the savings, but I guess Timbo is also.

[IAMMAC]

Not sure yet about the trip, the wife says she has a "secret" trip planned for sometime around then.  I'll try to get it out of her exact dates and then I'll be able to make a decision.  If I do go I can cot it like others and would need a seat in a boat if there is one available.........Larry.  If need be I could bring my military credentials with me.
