90th Birthday Get Together 2015: Cabins are Reserved and Spaces are Allocated

As I mentioned in my original post, we wouldn't get final confirmation of our cabin reservations until mid-August. As it turns out we didn't get Longfellow as one of the three cabins we wanted to reserve, but, but instead we got Gate Cottage (which just happens to have capacity of four beds more than we originally had in our mix).

Gate Cottage

Now, we have a confirmed reservation for Gate Cottage, Gardener's Cottage and Kirkwood. Equally important, we have now finalized the allocation of rooms in each for our reserved cabins. We are a wonderfully diverse group of 11 adults and 5 or 6 kids ranging in age from 2 to 13 (2, 2, 4 - almost 5, 7, 13 and 13). We will be traveling from Germany, Canada, MD and NY, representing even more nationalities.

So, now a big THANK YOU goes out to all of you who have helped make this dream of ours to spend time with you in this place decisively closer to becoming reality. In particular, we would like to give a shout out to all the fine folks at White Pine Camp, whom I have bombarded with E-Mails in recent months asking about which cabins we can get where & when, and which spaces will work out best for the families with small children, and, and, and. Also, we would like to thank those members of our group who firmed up their plans and "officially" joined our group within only a few short days notice after configuration issues left us with an overcapacity that briefly brought the feasibility of the entire plan into question.

To all of you: THANK YOU! We look forward to seeing you all at White Pine Camp!

To anyone who might have still been considering joining us, we are truly sorry! Our three cabins are now completely spoken for, and White Pine Camp is fully booked for the time we will be there. What we can offer you is to help find an individually rented cottage on Osgood pond or an alternative space in a nearby bed-and-breakfast, hotel room, or something similar. We can also give you ideas about tent camping, nearby lean-tos or places which accommodate RVs.
