Off Season Trip To Carlisle, PA


Rob Peters

Recommended Posts

I may be heading to our Eastern Meet Club Host Hotel this Wednesday afternoon/Evening.   Our grandson's High School football team will be playing in the Class 1A State Championship football Game.  

The game is on Thursday afternoon at 1:00PM.  It won't be an easy game for them because the team they are playing won the state champions in 2020 and 2022 so their record really speaks for itself.  On top of that all of the state championship games are played at the Cumberland Valley High School in Cumberland Valley, PA which is just down the the road from where the opposing team lives.

Please wish our grandson's team good luck in this playoff game.  His school is Fort Cherry High School.. The Rangers

Wishing all the best for the Rangers. Have a safe trip Rob. Hopefully the weather cooperates.

As of now, it looks like little or no chance of rain or snow.  Maybe somewhat cold.

Good Luck to the Rangers on Thurs!!!  My Coach used to say "you guys have to Want it more"! Doesn't matter how good the other team was or is, the Rangers have to want it more!!!!!   So true!!!  Go Rangers!!

Ryan and I just checked into the Fairfield Inn.  They have remodeled.  All new carpeting throughout and rooms repainted.  Breakfast area completely redone and they enlarged it by removing the wall and shelves where the TV was.

As far as plans for the new hotel to be built on the field inside the circular driveway, nothing done yet and no timeline on the ground breaking and construction start

This will make more sense to people who have stayed here before. Here a few picture of the new lobby and breakfast/social area.

 

View from the front doors, as you can see,  it is now open all the way through to the back courtyard

Where these 5 tables are, there used to be a wall on this side

View of the long bench seating area

View from the rear of the breakfast/social area where you can now see all to the front entrance,  you can see how wide open the view is, all the way to the front entrance.  Now there will be no sneaking in the front or side halls...we will be able to see you from this area!!!!

Thanks for the pics, it definitely opens it up a lot. We're going to need those added tables next year, for sure.

Ryan and me at the empty Carlisle Events show field.  It snowed a little here over night but quickly melted by now
