Well, we've lived here long enough, time to host a run! (Thanks to Maureen for giving me the idea

What: The New Hampshire Fishercats vs. The Portland Seadogs. Plus a fireworks show.

When: July 7, 2007. Puck drops at 7:05 (oops wrong sport

)

Where: Meet for the run is TBD (once I figure out where we're going) but we will end up in beautiful downtown Manch-Vegas at the MerchantsAuto.com Stadium!

Price: $23/person. This includes a 90 minute buffet of hamburgers, hotdogs, sausages and steak tips, watermelon, cookies and fruit punch and lemonade. I heard back from the FisherCats. I need to know a firm count buy Saturday the 30th so that they can plan for it. I'm also going to make some patriotic goodie bags.

The gate opens at 6pm final run planning will occur this week (as I am between jobs right now) and will be posted for downloading soon.

We have an extra bed if anyone needs to use it. Free Breakfast in the morning.

Folks:
Beth and Louis (duh)
Jock and Hannah
Ricardo

This sounds fun! I'm interested. I'll have to find a co-pilot.

minisidewalkman · Jun 8th, 2007, 12:14 PM

Sounds great, wish I could make it, bit of a swim though. Have a burger for me.

Actual Size · Jun 8th, 2007, 12:17 PM

Wish we could make it, but we'll be away at the time.

If you can get 25 or more people interested, you can get a group rate.

holdenontoit · Jun 8th, 2007, 12:22 PM

this sounds like a good time to me! Tentatively pencil us in (Jock and Hannah) and I'll see if I can drum up another couple from N'port too!

Yeah, that's where I found out about the party in the left field. $23/person for food and the game seems like a steal to me. Plus we'll be all together. I hope we can get the number of people.

I'm game, although I should warn you that since the Sea Dogs are a Sox affiliate, I'll be rooting against your New Hampshire team...

me too.

holdenontoit · Jun 8th, 2007, 11:33 PM

we're in!

blalor · Jun 10th, 2007, 03:25 AM

I'll be camping that weekend, unfortunately. Have fun, everyone!

bethandlouis · Jun 11th, 2007, 04:03 PM

Just heard from the Fishercats. There is a party booked into the dinner in the den, but because there is someone booked in we don't have to have 20 people or more. This would be the 90 minute all you can eat buffet with lemonade, fruit punch and iced tea and admission to the game for $23/person. Sound good?

I need to know a firm number of people by June 30,2007.

If everyone does not want to do this please let me know so I can order the tickets. Almost worked out the route. I think it's going to be a lake tour.

MMMmmmmm all you can eat lemonade, fruit punch, and iced tea!

There's nothing on my calendar for that weekend, so perhaps I'll show up.

Jason has issues with commitment...

bethandlouis · Jun 11th, 2007, 05:51 PM

So many men do

jwardell · Jun 11th, 2007, 06:46 PM

Sounds fun, but I have a wedding to attend (you're going to hear that excuse from me a lot this summer). I've added it to the calendar.

I'd reply to that, but I don't want to be pinned down with a specific response. :P

bethandlouis · Jun 19th, 2007, 01:46 PM

Thanks for the add Josh sorry you won't be able to make it.

bethandlouis · Jun 20th, 2007, 02:30 AM

Just drove the route and had some fantabulous ribs at KCs Rib Shack.

The begining is at Chez Cassorla. Complete with running water and a toliet (inside even). It will be a lakes tour, unless you want to just do 100% highway to Manchester. It takes about 2 1/2 hours to do it from here to Manch-vegas. We pass by 4 lakes and a pond. It's not a bad trip.

Gate opens at MerchantAuto.com Stadium at 6pm buffet starts at 6:30pm. If you want to just meet at the ballpark I totally understand we are a bit of a hike from Manchester. If you want to then great, the more the merrier. I've even worked in a photo op stop at the southern tip of Lake Sunapee.

Let me know
Beth

MGB Boy · Jun 22nd, 2007, 05:22 AM

Took in my first minor league game of the season tonight, Vermont Lake Monsters vs the Tri-City Valley Cats. The "Tri-City" apparently refers to Albany, Schenectady and Troy. Crikey. Anyhow, it was a 9-5 win for the home town Lake Monsters, complete with a nice fireworks show after the game to celebrate the solstice. Good times. Most importantly, I got my first serving of Dippin' Dots (ice cream of the future) for the year. Nice...

-Ricardo

bethandlouis · Jun 22nd, 2007, 11:38 AM

mmmmmmm, dipping dots. I once new a guy that emptied them out into his hand. He didn't know it was ice cream, duh!

Here's the Route plan. We will have these printed out on the day of the run so no worries in getting these printed before you come.
The starting point is
318 Corbin Road
Newport, NH.

We are located off of Route 10 in North Newport near the airport (Parlin Field). If you need detailed directions PM me.

Don't forget that I need a firm count by June 30th to give to the FisherCats so they can buy food for us.
