The Lamp Post Inn will offer any of their guests that participate in the Race or Pub Crawl a 10% discounted rate for the evening of August 13th. (Weekly guests will receive a $7.00 credit toward their weekly rate for the week that includes the 13th).
The Press Release for the Race and Crawl that was sent out by the Ann Arbor Convention and Visitors Bureau regarding the Run and Pub Crawl is found below:
First Annual UA Plumbers & Pipefitters 5K Run & Pub Crawl Fun Run. The race will be happening on Monday, August 13th in conjunction with the Block Party.
This run will be benefiting a charity that is very near and dear to the UA, The Semper Fi Fund.
The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit set up to provide immediate financial support for injured and critically ill members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families. We direct urgently needed resources to post 9-11 Marines and Sailors, as well as members of the Army, Air Force or Coast Guard who serve in support of Marine forces. The Semper Fi Fund (SFF) provides relief for financial needs that arise during hospitalization and recovery as well as assistance for those with perpetuating needs. Our program provides support in a variety of ways including: Service Member and Family Support, Specialized & Adaptive Equipment, Adaptive Housing, Adaptive Transportation, Education and Career Transition Assistance, PTSD and TBI Support and Team Semper Fi. For more information – go to www.semperfifund.org.
100% of the proceeds from the race will be going to this very worthy charity.
Register for the event as soon as possible and make your reservations for your overnight stay at the Lamp Post Inn. To redeem the 10% off price simply show your race registration form to the front desk staff
My family and I are proud to be the Innkeepers for the Lamp Post Inn, a small family owned hotel in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The Lamp Post Inn is located very near the University of Michigan campus and is in an ideal location for those visiting the University or hospitals. We are also less than two miles rom the University of Michigan athletic fields, The Ark, Hill Auditorium, the Michigan Theater and downtown Ann Arbor.
Our dream when we purchased the hotel was not to have the most exquisite hotel in town, but rather to own a hotel that was affordable but met the basics needs of visitors to Ann Arbor. We wanted to provide a convenient, friendly, clean accommodation at a fair price. We realized an older hotel could not hope to compete against the four star amenities of our pricey, and corporate franchised competition but we also believed that most people did not need the glitz, as long as they received value for their dollar.
When you visit Ann Arbor we invite you to stay with us and enjoy our hotel. We are proud to be a part of Ann Arbor, a world leader in academics, athletics and cultural events.
