I'm trying to find a way to get to Bare Hill Correctional from Albany and it's been ridiculous! Any idea if this guy goes there??

His ALBANY # ( I think he's there Wed and thurs) is 518 485 5850

Try the NY one first and the Albany one next. And Ask him when he's going next. Hope this helps!

Does ANYONE go to Bare Hill Correctional? I'd even rent a car if I knew someone to ride with me and split the cost.

[we miss u]

it is not a bad ride up there. The thing is when you get there the way they have it. you are in a housing unit first and they go by your number. the people rush to get a good number and also rush to the bathroom!! lol. then then you wait outside for like no more than 3mins for them to tell you to come in. other than that, the bus service it okay to take up there. i think manny's go up there, and i forgot who else.

I hope that was a little help.

Oh he's located in Maryland and he picks up in NY?

[Growing Weary]

I took them a few weeks ago to Green/Coxsackie/Hudson route and it was great. The driver Peter has a brand new van w/DVD players. He picks up in the Bronx and Manhattan and has door/door service too.

He's also looking to expand his route so its worth giving him a call.

MUCH better than those icky buses from Grits and Manny's. He charges a little more but not much. I'd rather pay for peace of mind and quality service than a nasty bus broke ass bus!!!

Anyhoo, the website is: http://prison-visits.com/ and his number is 646.919.7149. Hope this helps everyone! xo

I go to Attica from Elmira every weekend. I always drive myself. Would like to know if anyone thinks there is a bus that comes through elmira on way to Attica or if someone in Elmira goes to Attica. My baby expects me every weekend but its tough with gas prices and all.

[Mz Rodriguez]

I found out Corky's having a special July3rd to August 2nd for $50.00 - Children stay the same at $25.00.
Sheesh i wish they would stay at $50.00 longer. but i would rather spend the extra $10 bucks on corky's then ever get on a bus with prison gap. If anyone has any other good deals to Attica please let me know! Thanks

I just supposedly reserved a seat on Rambo's Van Service to go up to Cayuga Correctional in Moravia, NY for a Saturday Night SHU visit.
Can anyone who may have had experience with them shed some details on what the ride was like? I'm an ex-con and my boy's up there.

I really don't expect much more than a tiny van, but I suppose I'm just a bit new to the idea and if anyone could enlighten me I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

[ShaSha21]
