Free Breakfast for Mom & $2500 Raffle

Mother's Day Weekend is just a few days away, and the long term weather forecast is much better than the short term (hoping to avoid a long rain delay in the Bronx tonight, as Jen & I are headed to the game). If you have not yet gotten a Mother's Day present, we offer the following options this weekend: ceramics with Ron & Arlene on Saturday--make mom a lovely figurine; Bingo all weekend (buy Mom's cards); breakfast on Sunday (sure, we provide a free breakfast buffet, but you could either deliver it to mom or take care of feeding the kids as well. I know I am looking forward to the buffet); $2500 Raffle on Sunday--tickets may be purchased until 11:30AM on Sunday, with the drawing at noon. First prize is $2500, with additional prizes of $400, $300, $200 and $100 to be awarded. Each weekend reservation receives a free ticket (including those campers on the 6-weekend "spring special"), while additional tickets may be purchased for $10. Unlike many raffles, your actual odds of winning are much greater with this type, since it is not like 5000 tickets are being sold. In fact, last year's raffles featured odds of winning the grand prize at better than 1 in 250. The activity schedule is posted on the website, and Friday night's movie is "Hotel for Dogs", which is not really thematically connected to Mother's Day, but should be fun for the kids. Well, off to the big city. Will try to post a few photos on Thursday--hopefully of the scoreboard, if the result is better than last night.

  2. unfortunately, some of the seats have obstructed views of the scoreboard, making photos virtually impossible
