Quad State Herf 7 - Saturday, Aug 11th

[stogieman]

After a few phone calls and a number of S/BOTL wanting to schedule their vacation, we have locked down the date for this year's Quad State Herf. It will be Saturday, August 11th from 1000 (10am) until dusk (roughly 2000/8PM) and the location is West Point's Recreational Area (Round Pond). It will be the same location as last year being that it was a big hit and all. It will be a day of relaxing, enjoying great BBQ (prepared by Sean Keever and his crew - Muzzle Brake BBQ aka: Big Guns BBQ) and a number of outdoor events, i.e., volleyball, basketball, horse shoes, fishing, swimming, paddle boating and much more. The recreation area is large enough to comfortably accommodate 200 - 250 guests.

The cost to attend the Quad State Herf is the same it was last year, $50.00 per person (half for food and drink and the other half for the "benefit"). As always, the West Point Warrior Transition Unit (Wounded Warriors) will be the benefit of the event along with "Wings for Warriors" http://wingsforwarriors.org/. As always, each guest will receive a very nice "goodie bag" and there will be plenty of stuff being raffled off at the event.

Below is a map of the area as well as Round Pond's website:

The actual address for the area is: 1348 Round Pond Road, West Point, NY 10996.
