Re: Who's going to ALPINE VALLEY.. Aug 29!!

I sure as heck wasn't going to get a room in Lake Geneva for $300.00 per night, which I wouldn't pay to stay in the LINCOLN FRIGGIN' BEDROOM! Lodging in Lake Geneva can be expensive, but you can definately find rooms for less than $300/night! At last check, Comfort Suites had rooms starting at $149...

PARROTHEAD SIGHTING!!! Looks like Parrotheads are beginning to invade the area! During my lunch hour today, I spotted a large fin attached to the top of a blazer driving through downtown Lake Geneva. "Alpine or Bust" written on the back windshield. It was a lovely sight to behold. God, am...

Re: Bus from Lake Geneva to Alpine?

Anyone know of a shuttle from Lake Geneva to Alpine??? Thanks! Can't wait for saturday! You might try calling Lenon Bus, Inc. (262) 248-3289. Downtown bars often use this service for shuttles to and from Alpine. Otherwise, you may still have time to reserve a seat on the Volcano Express http://www....

Well, today I began some serious planning, organizing and list-making for the BIG DAY! After much debate, we've decided to scale back our tailgate scene. We're leaving the grass hut and grandiose props behind this year. Never-the-less, there's still much to do and little time to get it all done (as ...

The economy and life have officially caused me to withdraw from Alpine Valley this year. It would have been my first trip but its just not in the cards. Job uncertainty and other financial burdens have caused us to re-evaluate our priorities . . . My sister (and husband) also made the diffecult dec...

Like Harbourgirl, I once had to pick up our tickets at Will Call. I dreaded the thought of wasting precious tailgating time standing in a long line. Fortunately, it really wasn't a long wait at all. However, it does help to remember your photo id (as the teary-eyed woman in front me found out). :rol...
