Jeff, I may be interested. Never been to Hershey Park, but have always wanted to go. May be a good opportunity to do so. Not sure which dates would be good yet as there could be conflicts with others vacations at work etc. Since it would be a three hour drive for me, I'd probably stay over in a hotel. Any particular dates you're thinking of as of now?

A Saturday/Sunday would probably be better, since I'm off on the weekends. I think August would be better too. I usually take my non-Disney vacation during August. If so during my vacation, I could probably do a Sunday/Monday. Hopefully, others can come on board too. Let me know which weekend you prefer. My guess right now would be the weekend of August 7th or 14th.

Any good lodging choices on Hershey grounds you know of? I'll probably check their website too as there are probably lodging/ticket packages available.

I'm not definite yet, but we'll see.

Thanks Jeff. If I can find somewhere closer to Hershey, that my be a better option for me. As long as it's not priced a la Grand Floridian. When you're bringing a family like you, more cost effective options are better since you're buying for several people.

Thanks Jeff. I'll look around and see what the best one for me to do is. The closer is probably best, depending on price. No bookings until we get locked in. But, I'm still working a bit on my Disney vacation in six weeks. Just minor details to do. Probably do this in May or so. I think this will be a fun event if it happens and hopefully we ca get more PPs to join us.

I live about 45 minutes away from HP... I would be game to come meet everyone... Just an FYI.. the Gettysburg Battlefields are about 75 min from HP, there is also a casino about 15 min from HP also. There is an outlet mall right next to HP, that has a Disney store outlet.

Questions welcome...

Might be too much to cover in a couple of days, but many thanks for the info. Just a wait and see attitude of what everyone would like to do. Still, a few months away! Obviously a lot to see and do in the area not only fun wise but educationally and historically too!
