Post MOT Zipline adventure

We talked about it - Now let's do it!
June 29th (Sunday after MINIsOnTop Saturday) I need to get a head count on folks that would like to go. The cost is $85/person which can come down depending how large a group we have. - Plan $85 less 10%!

Those interested please post to this thread and I'll take it from there. When we get a little closer to the date I will need some commitment (i.e. money) to reserve your place. For questions and a glimpse at what you have to look forward to go to:
Alpine Adventures Zip-line Canopy Tour - White Mountains of New Hampshire

Looks like there is a new 2000' run for '08!

Committed (or needs to be):
1. m2smith & Pam (maybe)
2. senorsock3 +1
3. Sheena & Armen(?)
4. Shannon +2
5. Laura +1
6. Howe Allen
7. QandELF
8. letsmotor9 +1
9. Mark Vetter +1

I'm down, but I have to check with the rest of my group. Sounds like a lot of fun. It looks like the group pricing is around $30 per person once you get a group of 10 or more, is that correct?
Thanks for putting it together, I'll let you know..

Yes - $30.40! Thanks for making that clear - almost 3 for the price of 1 with the group rate:
Alpine Adventures Zip-line Canopy Tour - White Mountains of New Hampshire
But we MUST be a group of 10+ AND we MUST prepay - 50% to book the date then the remainder 1 week ahead - That's why I would like to get a solid count before my credit card gets beat up

Keep in ming that they will add a 10% gratuity for groups of 13+ but that still beats the pants off $85!

I'll post something on Massmotoring...
Looks like you have me down twice, so I think we are 1 short of the group rate.

The group is coming together! Yeah!

I'll keep you all posted.

Bad News Quote...
No more $10 coupon - and the website has offers for two differing adventures...
Which leads to an actual cost of $76.50/person - That's the 10% group discount.
The time slot looks to be 11AM -
Who's still in???

(besides me )

OK - It's time to get ZIPPY!
We have two time slots reserved for us on June 29th at 11a.m. and noon. Each slot can accommodate 12 people so if you have a preference make yourself (and your credit card ) known by calling 888.745.9911 right away. Let them know you are with the MINIsOnTop group and they will take it from there.

To protect my credit card (!) slots not reserved by June 25th will go on sale to the general public at the regular rate. So call ASAP!

See you all there (and probably sooner!)

Have you signed up for your adventure yet?
The cut off date is coming soon - the Noon slot has some sign ups so far but none for the 11a.m. so lets try to fill up the noon one first!

So I signed up - I think. When I called a week ago, some nice lady told me the names of people who were already signed up for the 12 o'clock.

Today, some patronizing snotty kid on the phone told me I cannot sign up for a specific time slot. And she knew because she's been working there all of one month! Instead of finding out how to do it, she offered to explain some easier way for me to understand it can't be done. However she was incapable of entering my credit number into the system. This basic lack of knowledge of her job didn't stop her from sounding very cocky and self-assured.

See Mike what I have to go though for you?

P.S. She also told me the security code on my credit card cannot be 000. Apparently she is also a banking expert...
