This thread is for everyone who is planning on being in Albany on the evening of Friday, August 6th. and staying at least overnight on Saturday, August 7th, so as to remain in Albany until the morning of Sunday, August 8th.
UPDATED - 8/5/10 : BBH Albany Training Camp Dinner will be held at the Barnsider Restuarant
Friday, Aug.6th (reservations for the "BBH" are for 6 pm, meet in the lounge for a beverage at about 5:30 pm)
Once again, some BBH'rs who will arrive at least the day before the annual BBQ will get together at a local restaurant for drinks and dinner on the night before. This is the ice breaker event of the weekend, and certain to be a really great time for all who attends. It is a pay-as-you-go event, where separate checks are the norm.
The Barnsider restaurant (shown on the official map as location (3), in the "Maps & Directions" thread) offers a fine selection from Seafood to Steak.
Their menu can be found at:
http://www.barnsiderrestaurant.com/
(unfortunately, this menu, while complete is also without pricing)
Reservation for 15 have been made, but this can easily be expanded to allow any number of late additions Please PM me at soon as possible if you have not yet declared your intention to join us.

BBH Albany Training Camp Brunch, Sunday, Aug.8th (approx. 10 am 'till "whenever")
In the past, some BBH'rs who stayed at least overnight in Albany after the annual BBQ got together at a local restaurant for brunch on the following day. This has become the farewell event of the weekend, and a really great time for all who attend. It is also a pay-as-you-go event, where separate checks are the norm.
Last year the Training Camp Brunch was held at the Cheesecake Factory restaurant at the Colonie Center Mall (the mall is shown on the official map as location (D), in the "Maps & Directions" thread). They offered a wide variety from Traditional to Decadent. Brunch for two cost me less than $35 (and G-Girl has a habit of selecting the most expensive items on the damned menu, no matter what meal it is).
Their menu can be found at:
www.thecheesecakefactory.com/menu/Sunday+Brunch
(unfortunately, this menu, while complete is also without pricing)
If there are any suggestions for having the Brunch at an alternate restaurant, please post your suggestions below.
Otherwise, please use this thread to post if you intend to attend the BBH Albany Training Camp Brunch:
