Christmas - MD/VA/PA/WA

[cacunn]

few times for her high school reunion, and they always had it at a rather large Motel. ... I remember that a lot of the motels in that area have banquet facilities, and that way, those that wanted to stay over and not drive back could do so.

It's a lot of work for a couple of people, and you really need advance reservations to make it work. But it can be done.

I do that type of thing for one of the Masonic organizations .......

but it is do-able, just takes somebody to run with it and do the leg work.

Good luck!

I was not thinking something as formal as a "reunion" but depending on how many respond it could turn into that size. There is a hotel in Gaithersburg, MD, about 1.5 miles from where I work that has an Irish pub / resturant. As I was looking for sites this morning this came to mind. Easy to get to just off of US-270 one of the major highways in the area. Some what central to the overall area. Best of all. like you said, room for those that might have a few more than would be best for driving.

I have organized these thing before and am helping with a reunion of one of the Army units I was in. This is why I hope someone volunteers to ram rod it.

I went with my wife to a couple of her reunions, and they were far from formal. They had a big room, a bar, some music, some pupu's and that's about it........... no need to be fancy!

People will just want to mainly socialize.

Westminster has 3 motels.

Boston Inn 410 848 9095
Days Inn 410 857 0500
Best Western 410 857 1900

O'Lordon's has the largest seating area as opposed to the Royal Mile. TRM is really small and cramped. I'm not saying I wont go there, but for a large group, (10 or more), we would really have trouble sitting together. If everyone want to get together at O'ls for Christmas, I volunteer to make the reservations. Let pick a day: the 8th or the 15th.
O'Lordons is located on Bond Street, Just off of Main street. Parking is available in the garage behind the building.

I think we need a roll call of the possible guests and then come up a central location.

If you don't want to post your city, feel free to give state and county. I really wanna try and get the NOVA folks involved (this means you!) So we really need to let us know where you are. I only saw a few in the area on Frppr map. Have you registered on http://www.frappr.com/xmarksthescot
Feel free to update your info.

Also we need to pick a date, say start with December 1st and work around that.

The 15th is already been knocked out by work for me.
