just spoke to organizer of pesach hotels who used to do 4 hotels back in the day
told me he'll be happy if he fills one, even his loyalist are now going to exotic locations with chef, maybe the DD effect
though he says industry is moving towards shabbos chanukah getaways in tri state area which fills up pretty quick
If the price points are converging it makes sense.

At least making your own shabbos chanuka isn't such a big deal.

Yes, but also presumably not as much as Pesach.

AFAIK this is his brother and not Hershey. Either way, they had a successful Shabbod Nachmi program this past summer.

His brother.

The same one who was involved in the Pesach program?

AFAIK this is his brother and not Hershey. Either way, they had a successful Shabbod Nachmi program this past summer.

So you're saying if he was a bench player for the Marlins, his batting average justifies his job.
