We will be returning to Lake George once again in 2019. The vote was close (I think it was something like 22 - 28), but in the end the group choice was to return to the Blue Moon. Overflow hotels are the Barberry (next door) and the Brookside (across the street). Nancy recommends Brookside, but people might feel safer not having to cross the road after hours of partying lol.

Blue Moon Motel prices:

Doubles........$80
Queens.........$90
Suite............$105
..
Phone 518 668-2709

I do not have any other details so when you call to reserve, ask about cancellation policy. I will try to get that information as well, but probably not for a day or two. I will also reach out to the Barberry and Brookside for details soon. Nancy indicated that Brookside rates are the same as Blue Moon.

Please post when reservations are made so that we can track them here.

More details to follow.

breakfast...Canceled

[/B][/U][/I]talked with Panera bread this morning about catering the breakfast thurs-sun...told them we need the delivery to the motel by 8 am each morning with the exception of sunday where a 7 am delivery would be better suited for those getting ready to head out.

going to follow the choices Mike used last year...bacon/egg/cheese or sausage/egg/cheese...coffee will come with each meal... if you want oj, I would suggest picking up a container or small bottles yourself and keep it in the fridge in your room...it will not come with the meal.


Tuesday...may 28

got back an estimate for 30 people... 15 bacon and egg...$77.85...15 sausage and egg....$77.85...3 containers of coffee at $15.99 per container ($47.97). ..$20 delivery fee...$10 tip to driver...tax $20 (estimated) totals $253. At 30 people...comes to $8.50 per person per day could be more if less than 30 people order...could be less if more than 30 order.

again...Wednesday june 26 we finalize this and place the order...at that point I will know the exact amount and those placing an order can paypal me with payment.

be aware that at this time $8.50 is not the final set per person rate...

Looking for volunteers to lead rides on Friday and Saturday.



Would like to consider including "tourist" destinations along the ride route. Maybe one per day. We did this in Stowe and I think it was a lot of fun.



Please post in this thread or PM me if you are willing to help us with rides.


Thanks

I am considering maybe "organizing" a mini-golf outing on Thursday for those who arrive early if there is interest.


Please post to indicate interest. Also, if there is some other "outing" you would rather see on Thursday, post that too.


Thanks.

Spoke with Christen last week and asked him if he'd be interested in doing the Tee's again...always did a great job in the past.. always a good design, creative...happy to say he accepted... so will be interesting to see what he comes up with for next year. Thanx again Christen for your help.

At the rally got into a discussion with Jamie who mentioned something about knowing someone who could do a bbq/pig roast or something in that idea...so will be considering that for Friday or sat nite and the other nite using the catering place we have used the past several years...never heard any complaints about their food, pricing was good, just kicking around different ideas at this point.

As we get closer, I will look into different options for breakfast, may end up going with what we've been using...maybe try something different...maybe even see if I can find a catering truck to park itself at the rear of the grounds and offer some grill items...eggs, pancakes, omlets...long shot maybe...we'll see.

All suggestions or ideas will be considered. This is everyones rally..feel free to chime in...tell me my ideas suck...whatever... encourage input from the female side...since I will be blaming them if anything goes wrong.

Hope everyones summer is going well...ride safe... looking foward to seeing those who will be attending the OFest in Cooperstown.

Dennis,

we tried to get a catering truck a couple times, but the rally has fallen on the same weekend as the "Troy Pig Out" food truck festival, so almost all the local trucks are usually preparing for or heading to that. Some of us can eat alot, but it was hard to convince any of them to give up thousands of customers,,,,haha.

But you never know.....

Regretfully Laura and I must cancel our plans for 2019 Yankee Rally in Lake George. We will miss you all. Hopefully we will see you soon. Have a safe and great New Year...
I will contact Blue moon about our cancellation as of 12/30/18.

Sorry, we took a club vote and we're not accepting you missing the rally. Request denied.

Get your priorities straightened out soldier.

We'll see you in July :)
