NOTE...
The night doesn't have to end when our dinner meeting ends with our Skal Toast! Skalleague Marc Becker has informed us that Rosie's on the Roof will be celebrating "National Rum Day" with Rum Cocktails and smooth Jazz until 10 pm. So for those who want to stop over after dinner and before collecting their cars, this would be a good night to enjoy it.
The Higgins Hotel is also offering a special $99 "Take The Elevator Home" rate for guests who don't wish to drive after the event. See details and link below.
