Cigar Social Network
Well, we have locked down the date for this year's Quad State Herf. It will be Saturday, August 20th from 1000 (10am) until dusk (roughly 2000/8PM) and the location is West Point's Recreational Area (Round Pond). It will be a day of relaxing, enjoying great BBQ (prepared by Sean Keever and his crew - Muzzle Brake BBQ) and a number of outdoor events, i.e., volleyball, basketball, horse shoes, fishing, swimming, paddleboating 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. Lastly, 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:

Permalink Reply by Cigar_Mayhem on March 26, 2011 at 3:38pm I realize that this years event may not be entirely planned out yet, but this is close enough for our crew up here in Binghamton to make this without much extra effort. Can the general public come and camp at the Round Pond site and how much will it cost (or how much has it cost to get a ticket for the event in the past)?
Mark
In reference to camping out at Round Pond, I just called them and they said that as long as I reserve the spot, you are good to go. The pricing ranges from $15 to $25 a night.
The cost of the event is $50 per person (half for food and drink and the other half goes to the Wounded Warriors) each person gets a real nice goodie bag and there will plenty of raffle items at the event.
I will update the origan post when I get home...... :->

Well guys and girls, now that CigarFest 2011 has come and gone (another suberb event), it's time for me to redirect all of my efforts to this year's Quad State Herf. I know that there are a number of S/BOTL out there that still have not decided if they are attending this year's event. We have a handful of BOTL driving from the New England states from various cigar boards, i.e., CigarPass, CigarSmokers, CigarSnobs, etc. New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania are all well represented and there is still plenty of room to sign up. I know that Mark "Bugs" Moran, Claude, Paul Andrew and a few others were talking about joining us this year and that would be great. We always say the more the merrier.
I wanted to post the link to where we keep an active Guest / Sponsor list over at CigarPass:
http://www.cigarpass.com/forums/index.php?showtopic+68608
This year, award winning BBQ team "Muzzle Brake Outfitters" will be supplying us with tasty bbq chicken, pulled pork, ribs and brisket as well as other tasty treats. Here is the link to their website for your info:
http://web.mac.com/sean.keever/iWeb/Muzzle%20Brake%200Outfitters/BB...
So post away if you are planning on attending and / or if you have any questions - concerns. Talk with uou all soon....... :->
Charlie
Well folks, we are exactly 100 days from the Quad State Herf. The location is locked down and paid for, our good friends at Muzzle Brake Outfitters are finalizing the menu and the guest list is growing nicely. I've started to contact cigar companies / owners and I have a good feeling that this year's event will be another success. Just wanted to keep everyone updated and that there's still plenty of room to sign up. More to follow soon........ :->
Charlie
Hey Charlie, please add 2 to your list of attendees. My cousin and I will be there.
