WEEKEND ITINERARY - Of course, all activities are optional!

Friday, October 2 :

• By popular request, we will have Horse Racing after dinner.

Saturday, October 3:

• After breakfast, some will be making their way down the mountain to participate in the infamous "New York vs. New Jersey Paint Ball Contest" at the Bailiwick Ranch in Catskill. They also offer horseback riding at the ranch as well as a zoo.

• For those who are not as adventurous, you may want to check out a large estate sale held every weekend right down the block from the Thompson House. They have many items at reasonable prices.

• Cocktail Hour 4 – 6 PM, get together and slide show.  New photos have been added – you are sure to see yourself! (Instead of charging for the cocktail hour, we will hold a 50-50 to cover the costs!). A lucky family member will have the opportunity to go home with some extra cash!

• After dinner, entertainment and dancing by Jimmy Walsh.

Sunday, October 4:

• Possible Golf Outing
