  • New Best Western Rama Inn Lodging Rules for Practice Days and Apple Turnover
    • The Best Western Rama Inn has changed its policy on reserving rooms at a discounted IAC Group rate. The new procedures follow:
    • Chapter 67 has reserved at the Ephrata Best Western Rama Inn 10 King rooms at the IAC Group rate from 1-7 September. These reservations are intended for pilots who will participate in practice days and remain for Apple Turnover. Use the Practice Days Reservations link below. It will reserve your room for both the Practice Days and Contest Days.
    • Chapter 67 has reserved at the Ephrata Best Western Rama Inn an additional 10 Double rooms at the IAC Group rate from 4-7 September for Apple Turnover pilots not attending the practice days and volunteers. The Contest Days Reservations link below is only to reserve rooms from 4-7 Sep.
    • There are Stripe Links below for making reservations at the IAC Group rate for either time period.
    • The Chapter MUST cancel the reservations no later than 25 August for any rooms not reserved by pilots or volunteers or IAC 67 will have to pay for the unreserved rooms.
    • This means that if you want a room at the IAC Group rate YOU MUST RESERVE IT BY 24 August. Unreserved rooms will be cancelled after 24 August.
    • You can still reserve a room (if available) after 24 August, but you may not get the IAC Group rate
    • You can cancel a reserved room according to the standard Rama Inn policy, that is until 1600 on the day you're scheduled to arrive.

    • It's unlikely that the Port of Ephrata "Courtesy Car" will be available to us during Practice Days or Contest Days
    • Some pilots and volunteers will have cars and usually help out with ground transportation
    • There is now Uber available in Ephrata...but it may be coming from Moses Lake
    • Rental Cars are available in Moses Lake at Enterprise; also check with Hertz.
      • The Enterprise agency now allows "after hours" drop off on the weekend
      • Other attendee with cars might be available to take you to Moses Lake to pick up and bring your back after drop off if you don't want to use Uber
