I can't make it Monday for LCC or dinner/drinks--will be out of town Mon & Tue.
But will be playing WM on Sunday and look forward to seeing those that will be there.

Time to make an executive decision concerning the gathering on Monday evening as people are wanting to make travel plans.

I like the idea initially put forward by Shi$ (seconded by Kris S) of McGillin's Old Ale House down in the city:

Let's meet at 6:30 PM.  

So who is for sure coming?

I may visit the Free Library beforehand, if anyone wants to join me for some historical work.

Count me in for Monday Night.

I will be at LCC with my new aproach to golf on Tuesday (did you all know this game is easy) and one thing that is not changed is that like Melvin I will not be anywhere near a cart and would like a caddie.

Joe,
    I can probably make it Monday evening for the get together. We will be enroute to NYC, spending the night in Delaware so it shouldn't be too much of a drive to come over to Philadelphia. I'll confirm tomorrow.

I'm in for Monday night at McGillin's. It should be a festive evening.

Cheers,

Joe,
    I probably can't make it. We will be a little over 2 hours away from Philadelphia where we are staying in Delaware. I will still try to come, but don't plan on me. :( Just in case I do make it is there any parking around McGillin's?

There should be garage parking all over there Ed.  And you could get lucky with street parking at that time.

White Manor was outstanding.  A very, very good test of golf and I concur with others in why it doesn't receive more attention. 

Thank you, Jason.  Good to see all of you and trust you all arrived home safe.

 I am in complete agreement.  White Manor really is one of the most underrated courses in the state.  We couldn't have had more ideal conditions for golf than yesterday. Many thanks to Jason for being such an outstanding host!

Gentlemen

  Many thanks for a great few days.  It was great fun to join everyone at White Manor (which I continue to maintain is the most underrated course in PA) - many thanks to Jason - and to follow up with a great afternoon yesterday.   Hopefully Joe can post a few pics from the last few days.  

  Be well.  --ROC
