Does anyone know any organizations that might be to provide a bus service to New Glarus Wisco for the Oktoberfest at the end of September? Ive looked at a few charter services, but one is more expensive than the next ($2500 + lodging for the bus driver). will be loading camping gear and a few bikes.
any ole skool bus will do.

Does anyone know if driving a bus like that requires a CDL? If it does do we have any potential drivers?
Hi Iggi/Eric (former roommate, Annette, here :))
I've taken the Van Galder bus from Janesville back to Chicago and it was a very pleasant experience (bike loaded in, fully geared, into bottom bus storage, bus was clean, driver was pleasant, and the bus even got into Chi an hour early!) http://www.coachusa.com/vangalder/
I think you can take to/from Madison too. Each would put you about to 20 - 40 (est) miles out from New Glarus and the ride in is very hilly (driftless area) but well worth it when you roll into the amazing little Swiss-like town of New Glarus! Not sure about camping on the brewery grounds (!) but the State Park is rather close to the brewery - I do recall stumbling back after some extensive sampling...
Anyways, enjoy your trip out there! I'm actually going up there the weekend of Spet 11 - 12!
