| 8th Annual 2012 April Hiker Fool Bash Weekend
Friends while making your 2012 northbound hiking plans please keep in mind the eighth annual April Hiker Fool Bash in Franklin. It will be held on March 30th & 31st at Sapphire Inn. As in the past we will be having some of the same stuff and some new. Same as last year the town also has entertainment planned for the hikers, venders, music, food, games, and fun for everyone in the downtown area on Saturday from 10am until 4pm. If you would like to make your reservations early we will have 30 rooms available at the Sapphire Inn 828-524-4406 if you want lodging at the bash. If you prefer lodging a little quieter our Budget Inn Motel is only 1,000 feet from Sapphire Inn. Last year both of these motels filled up long before the bash and many hikers stayed at The Franklin Inn only 3 blocks away. We will have transportation back and forth to Budget Inn & Franklin Inn. If you prefer other lodging they are other lodging in Franklin but you need to stay clear of Days Inn which just changed to Knights Inn. As many know and in your guide books list we make 2 or 3 runs each morning from these three motels only free to Winding Stair, Rock, and Wallace Gaps trail crossings. At 4pm we run free in town guest shuttle to the Post Office, Outfitter, Grocery Stores and Shopping Centers. (We run shuttles around town in the evenings even during the bash) This scheduled shuttle runs in March & April only. If you call Budget Inn 828-524-4403 we will shuttle you year around. Also we can arrange shuttles from Amicalola to Fontana too ( You can see our motels at Lodging In Franklin, NC) We look forward to seeing you here in Franklin. If you have questions feel free to call us or pm. Thanks to all who has helped in the past to make this great event possible.
