COST: $25.00 per person to cover cost of food and refreshments. Transportation to and from Simsbury will be provided unless you arrive late and/or leave early.
 
Bradley International Airport (BDL) is located just 10 minutes from my home.  Several nice, but economy hotels are located nearby on Route 75 (Ella Grasso Turnpike). They include the Fairfield Inn, La Quinta Inn, and the Doubletree Hotel. Friday dinner will be within walking distance of these hotels.
