(Saturday)
Klamsteam Tavern
Clifton Park, NY
Open House:
4 pm - midnite
RSVP requested
Disturbing the peace since 1960
Who's invited?
All Mike's friends, family, coworkers, drinking buddies, climbing partners, travel friends, school mates, fellow firefighters, cops, EMS brothers and sisters, Facebook friends, Twitter followers, and fellow pranksters, comedians, authors, speakers, cohorts, fans, and others not specifically named herein. If you're reading this, it probably includes you (unless you are a random web hacker from Indonesia or Pakistan).
Where the hell is Klamsteam Tavern?
If you hang out with Mike at home, you'd know. If not, it's at 32 Clamsteam Road, Clifton Park, NY 12065 (phone 518-373-9409). Click here for the Google map.
What if too many people show up?
Like that would happen. And if it does, the IAP (Incident Action Plan) has a contingency parking area at the West Crescent Fire Department (1440 Crescent Road, Clifton Park, NY 12065) with a shuttle running to and from the Klamsteam. There is also a second parking area at the Exit 8 Park and Ride, also included in the shuttle loop. Fear not.
What do I wear?
Casual. Very casual. Leave the swimsuit at home - the river water is freezing cold. The road next to the Tavern is nice for skiing if you feel adventurous.
I'm traveling from far, far away. Where can I stay? And I'm not talking in a tent.
Hotels in Clifton Park suck. Mike has an arrangement worked out with the Hilton Garden Inn near Albany Airport at a special rate of $94 per night. To reserve, you need to either call the hotel directly (518-464-6666) or when reserving on-line, use the Group/Convention code MCEVOY to obtain the special rate (watch the boxes, there's also a Promotion code box; that one won't work). The block of rooms will be cut loose on January 8th, 2010.
How do I reach Mike's trusty neighbor Kathy?
Smart you are. Kathy watches Mike's house when he's gone; which is most of the time. And while she knows Mike pretty well, she's not giving out her last name or her phone number. Instead, she's posted a little note on her front door that says, "The guy who has everything likes cigars, red wine, iTunes, cookies, Starbucks and some things that cannot be written on a Post-it note."
Sign me up. RSVP me. I plan to come.
