Vintage Gunners

Look forward to seeing a bunch of you at the annual meeting (and the Southern too)

Sandanona and Addieville (my two favorite Vintagers) both had banquet facilities close by, as well as lodging. Hausmann's is a great Sporting Clay venue, but I am not familiar with any banquet facilities close to the shooting grounds. If they are close by the various hotels, that's great for most people. I have always camped at Hausmann's, so that may present a challenge.
Dover Plains was a nice location but that was short lived.

A suggestion for consideration if the PGCA hasn't set up a banquet facility as yet: Tall Pines is located just a few miles north of Hausmann's (toward Vestal) and I'm told it's an excellent golf course; it also has a large eating facility where some of Hidden Hollow's earliest post-shooting recognition/banquet events were held.

I have no personal financial or other interest in Tall Pines although we've dined at the restaurant and had excellent meals many times. Just sayin.

Frank, I agree that Tall Pines would be our go to when hosting an event at Ernie's. I love having meals at Tall Pines. Orvis Hill Country had their grand opening last weekend in Fairfield, Pennsylvania. Hill Country doesn't have a big banquet facility, but it is a few minutes from Gettysburg and 47 miles from my house. I think Hill Country will turn into a pretty nice sporting clays venue in the next few years with 500 acres of space. I have been there years before Orvis purchased the place, and it has possibilities.

That's good to know Frank. Is it official that it will be held there? It's right around the corner. Just gotta remember when leaving "Left, Right, Right"

Edgar, I edited my earlier post to indicate Tall Pines is only a suggestion for consideration if a banquet facility hasn't been chosen as yet. Sorry if I confused anyone but I was trying to respond to your question about local places with banquet capability. I am not involved in the selection of a facility.
