I know what you are thinking, Long Island Meet is not Mid-Atlantic, but you guys from Mid- Atlantic great people and we talked about this meet and I think you will love this one.
I'm going to call it Long Island Winery tour Meet 2007.
Date: Oct 6,7 or 13,14 or 20,27
I would vote for the 13,14 weekend, The 27th is to closet to Halloween. It gets a little nuts out here.
Information: There are about dozen winery's on the north fork, Some have ET and all have wine tasting. I will look into a nice place to eat and hotels. |

Allan, I'd be interested in a few preliminary room rates. Everything I've seen so far is above $200/night. I hope you have a few tricks up your sleeve.
I'm afraid if the costs are too high, attendance will be limited. |

Hi Al, If you think of it, ask if there will be a deadline for reservations
with the discount. I got stiffed in Altoona because they said I did not reserve a room within 30 days. Bud |

I just got back from the Wine Country. I confirmed the winery tour at Martha Clara. Starting at 12:30 PM, Oct 13. The only problem I'm having is a place to stay, nearby. No luck in Riverhead. About 20 minutes before the winery, I found a Comfort Inn, in Medford and the rate start at $109 and up. I think this would work good. I'm also looking into Charlie Brown's Steakhouse for Sat night dinner.
http://www.charliebrowns.com/
Comfort Inn, 2695 RT 112, Medford, L.I. 631 654 3000. (OCT 12 - 14)I just called the hotel and ask for a discount rate and I got it. $99.90 per night. When you call, tell them, your are from the Ridgeline Club and if there a problem, ask for Mr. JT.
Charlie Brown's is next door.
Please Book early. and post your days you book at the hotel |

| Great News: I spoken to the GM at Comfort Inn and block out 10 Rooms for the Club, for Oct 12 and 13. When you call them, just tell them your, from the Ridgeline Club and would like to book a room. Same price for one night or two nights booking. If need be, I can block more rooms. |

Note: I just added 8 more rooms for us. That would make 18 rooms total.
Please call the Comfort Inn ASAP. I would like to see no one shut out on this meet. Yes, we do party at night too. |

This the plans:
Oct 12, Early check in at Comfort Inn and you are on your own for dinner and things to do.
Oct 13, I thinking there is a free breakfest
11:00am, meet in parking lot. Caravan to the winery.
12:30pm meet at Martha Clara winery
(I'm thinking of ordering a 6 foot or 2 heros with salads for lunch. this would make is easy for all and we can split the course of it.)
I would say, it should end about 3 or 4pm.
Go back to to the Hotel and take a swim or whatever. lolo
Dinner at Charlie Browm 6:30pm
Sunday: Have Breakfest and say goodbye.
This is only a draft, and can change. |
