Has any decision been made as far as which Aroogas?

The Mechanicsburg location is only 10 miles east of Carlisle....which works better for anyone staying west of carlisle.

As far as Aroogas, that's an affirmative. (sounding like the robot on Lost in Space).  I'm not sure which location Viperman chose though.   :dunno:

Sorry didn't get around to responding to this:

I hadn't really chosen a location yet for the Aroogas 'cause it's still a ways away, but Shadango raises a good point.  So I think we can assume that we'll be visiting the Mechanicsburg location on the Carlisle Pike.  For one thing, there's a bit more parking available at that location verses the Camp Hill restaurant, and the place in general is bigger so there will be more room for us.  I in fact have pictures of two areas he suggested reserving for us - I can post those later.

Parking won't be quite as nice as at Your Place (I don't think there's another restaurant in all of central PA with a lot like that one...) but there should still be ample room.

And I checked some sports pages - the manager said that if there was a RAW Wrestling event on that evening reserving a spot might be tough, but there isn't an event scheduled for that Saturday so we should be in the clear.

I think next year we should look at booking a banquet room at a hotel (the Radisson has one) and having a catered dinner.    Then we could drink as much as we wanted!!!!

Jeff,

   I wonder how much this would cost per person? It sounds like it might be a pricey way to go to me.

You underestimate my skills, grasshopper....  :)

Actually Arooga's offers catering and their prices weren't bad - not much off what it'd cost to do a big buffet.  If I could negotiate the banquet room for free or cheap, it'd be easy-peasy...  We'd just have to get the attendance numbers high enough to justify it.

Jeff,

  Given that 11 of the 17 rooms at the club Hotel so far are accounted for, I'd say it's looking promising.

How many people do we need to get a banquet room do you guess??

I honestly have no idea.  I don't think I'll bother with it this year (I'm going to be UBER busy at work the next few months) but next year we might try getting creative.  :)

No problems.    :2thumbs:

Just let us know the Arooga's location.   :jumping:

I'd say the Camp Hill Location is a safe bet at this point.

Arooga's Route 11 is located at:
4713 Carlisle Pike Mechanicsburg, PA  17050.
717-737-WING(9464)

I'll put it this way - if it changes, I'll give you guys pleeeenty of notice.  :)  But due to reasons stated above, I think this will work best for everyone.

So guys, our membership numbers kinda appear to be all over the place - a lot of peeps joining on while a few others have had to cancel...

I'm really thinking that we should just go off-menu for dinner on Saturday.  This restaurant is much bigger - more "mainstream" - than the places we've gone in the past.  They said the kitchen would really have no problem keeping up with 10+ people - I mean we won't get EVERYTHING at once, but we won't be waiting a half-hour between each order, either...

Just wondering what you guys thought - now's about the time I gotta set up a buffet from them if we want one, but their buffet prices were a good bit higher than Your Place restaurant.

I welcome your thoughts and ideas!
