Special Rates for GABBAfest at the Ramada Plaza in Macon
Once again the good folks at the Ramada Plaza Hotel (formerly the Crowne Plaza) in Macon have offered us a deal on rooms for GABBAfest. When you call for reservations just ask for "the Georgia Allman Brothers Band Association rate" and say that you would like the special rate of $79 + tax per night. This rate is good for single or double occupancy and is good for Friday & Saturday nights, October 5th and 6th. This rate expires September 23, 2007, so make your reservations now. To make a reservation you can call the hotel directly at 478-746-1461 or call the Toll Free number at 1-800-227-6963, or visit the Ramada Plaza website. If you have any problems making a reservation, please email us us immediately at before you make any other arrangements.

Map/Directions to Douglass Theatre
The Douglass Theatre will host all main events other than those at The Big House on Vineville Avenue, and at Rose Hill Cemetery on Sunday.

H&H Restaurant
While in Macon,
make sure to visit Mama Louise at the famous H & H restaurant. Located at 807 Forsyth St across from the Medical Center. Mama will be cooking up her down-home vittles for breakfast, lunch and dinner on Friday and Saturday until 5 PM, but she's closed on Sunday because she's at church. Come into her kitchen and give her a big hug for feeding our boys when they needed it the most. Visit the Mama Louise website at: http://mamalouise.com/

Camper and RV Accomodations
RVers might like to know that Central City Park, a stone's throw from the Douglas, does have sites with full hookups. Their phone number is 478-751-9282 and the contact name is Janis Wright. You can also email your reservation requests to Ben.Hamrick@macon.ga.us. The cost is $15.00 per night and you have to be there before they close on Friday at 5:30pm to pay.

Camping is also available at Lake Tobesofkee, but it is nearly 15 miles west of Macon and is not recommended, although scenic.
