Shabbaton DO Master Thread

[gubevo18]

Repost from Arizona thread figured maybe it will get more exposure here.

Anyone in for a minyan at phonecian in Arizona first shabbos of February?

Have 3 so far

[S209]

I’m tentatively scheduling a Shabbos next week at one of a couple of hotels we’re deciding on in North Jersey, in between Lakewood and Monsey/Brooklyn. Probably an all-suite hotel such as a Hyatt House or Embassy Suites in the Parsippany/Piscataway area.

As of now it looks like we’ll be having a minyan with a Sefer Torah in the hotel. Depending on size and other factors we’re either going to eat as a group in a suite with a conference room table, eat separately as smaller groups in individual suites, or possibly take a larger conference room/restaurant area to eat. Food will most likely be bought and brought by one person with the costs split evenly among participants.

We’ve done a couple of these in the past, but never on this thread. We’ll likely be staying at a hotel I’ve used before. All DDFers welcome- single, married, or other. If you’re really interested, please post on this thread (or wiki), but don’t PM me. Most of the details will be finalized early next week.

Very interested if others are going with kids above 10 years old. Can likely get a good deal at the Princeton Doubletree, which has suites.

What kind of rates?

Guess everyone stayed home for all of pesach?

The Doubletree is also only a 35 minute walk from Chabad which has regular Shabbos minyanim.

Update: The original fellow who was going to bring along a Sefer Torah and 6 adult men needed to fly out to LA/Arizona this week for an engagement, so we will likely be postponing this to another week.

Because it appears to have generated some serious interest I’m going to create a GroupMe group before we plan the next one, and I’ll share it with anyone who is serious about joining. I have an all-suite hotel bookable with points which will allow us the use of their closed-for-the-weekend bar and restaurant for both davening and eating the meals.
