Greetings, earthlings...
This poor overworked unpaid servant has some nice tidbits to announce...
We are just about READY to sign the contract wtih Crowne Plaza for the AD Caucus!!!!
Now for this...
Rooms are $89.00 per night, King Size only...all double beds are gone. Still can squeeze in a few people on a King Size - I would think we could fit maybe FOUR of me on a King Size...heh heh.
As for the reception and banquet - we will be obligated to pay some towards the cost of the reception - I just need to figure out the amount of each person attending so we can keep the cost low...and the banquet is 35.95 per person...thats for the American Bounty Buffet - the menu would be:
Herb Rotini Salad with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto
Red Onion, Cucumber and Tomato Vinaigrette
Caesar Salad with Garlic Croutons and Shaved Parmesan Cheese
Spicy Potato Salad
Fresh Field Greens Salad with Assorted Dressings
Entrees:
Sliced Roast Strip Siroloin Merlot with Demi-Glace
Chicken Cordon Bleu
Penne Primavera Pomodori
Parisian Potatoes
Wild and Long Grain Rice
Fresh Vegetable Bouquet
and desserts:
Chocolate Mousse Torte
Raspberry Torte
Double Chocolate Cake
Carrot Cake
Of course...you may want to go at least a dollar cheaper...
There is the Italian Buffet Dinner
... quite a few to list.
or the Tex-Mex Buffet.
The reception foods are up to 50 pieces and can go from 85.00 to 200 dollars, for cold hors d'oeuvres and for hot, from 55 to 175.00.
However, they do have specialty Hors d'oeuvres stations which are charged per person/per hour.
They are Pasta Station, $8.95; Santa Fe Fajita Bar, 10.95; and Shanghai Stir-Fry at 9.95.
They also have reception menus, per person, per hour.
Cold Display, 10.95; Hot Hors d'Oeuvres $15.95.
Its up to you all...
THere is something I REALLY, REALLY need to guarantee... I need to have 40 people come to this event, so we WILL NOT have to pay room rental for BOTH the reception AND the banquet...Otherwise I will end up PAYING for the rooms out of my pocket...and believe me, I will not appreciate that very much.
I need for you to PM me if you will come to the AD Caucus - and I DO REALLY mean it. If I do not have 40 people PM me within the next 15 days, I will be forced to add the room rental to the final cost of each person coming. I dont want posts in the AllDeaf thread, and I WILL NOT COUNT ANYONE THAT POSTS IN ANY ALL DEAF CAUCUS THREAD, PERIOD.
I want PRIVATE MESSAGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When you PM me, please submit the number of people coming, their names and addresses; and day of arrival.
I will announce the number of people coming in a separate thread every day - and the count right now is 2.
