We have Frankenfest coming up on the 25th. I strongly recommend making a day out of it, and driving up to Clinton Ma. You'll have a great time. In the meantime, we can continue to look for a place for a local gathering.
I can look into a few places in Peekskill. We have a few "Lodge" organizations with good size spaces. I'd have to check on pricing. Christopher Columbus club, American legion, and also a local church that we use to go to that has some spaces.
