The Report

Staff absolutely CRUSHED Exchange Club Ladies Night. From the DRAs to bartenders...everyone was on point. Especially the serving team. It was a little bit of a struggle to get everyone to sit for service but we zoomed through it once they finally sat. The lounge bar was slammed, but with some assistance we were able to clear the crowd and push the last wave of cocktail hour drinks out. Staff also did a great job keeping the tables 100% clear once everyone was up for dancing and more cocktails. I firmly believe we set a good tone for the busy upcoming month. The veranda and ridgely bars were a bit of a ghost town the entire night. Ridgely didn't have any use for the card reader once, and ended with only about 10 tickets. A possible note for next year.

Perry Thanksgiving Dinner

This event was held in the Lounge. Bit of a surprise upon arrival with this group as we didn't have a bar listed on the BEO, but almost everyone wanted drinks. We were super quick to throw one up though and they were appreciative. I feel like this has happened before in years past so maybe we just get ready for bar service with them anyways. Service went very quickly and on time. They were in-and-out. No issues!

Colonial Dames

Business as usual for Colonial Dames. Of course we had to add about 16 extra seats, and then they had some AV trouble but everything was sorted out. They started a little late and ended a little late. No big issues

Fall VP Party

This event was held in the Lounge. Nice and easy cocktail party this evening. Definitely wasn't 100 people but we got pretty close. Staff stayed on top of clearing and anything else that was needed. The veranda was actually very well utilized for the weather being a little sucky. Hosts and guests had a great time and were super appreciative. No issues! \*We also had our first coat-check night, so we'll keep that in mind going forward
