Travel Info

Our town is a small, rural town with several local resturants as lunch options, however, if you are trying to provide lunch for your entire team, leaving and getting lunch in an hour may be difficult. We will provide a lunch option for teams and their families (it is pre-order only...be on the lookout for an email about this once your have registered your team). Also, if your team needs overnight accomadations, we are located about 15 minutes from Dothan, Alabama, which has plenty of hotel options. The northside part of Dothan is closest to Headland.
