If you're going to be Los Angeles at the end of this month, join us in Studio City for an afternoon celebrating the June birthdays of Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy! We have a luncheon, book signing, film clips, memorabilia sale and guest speakers. The date is June 28; details and tickets are available at the link below.

on the book "Sweethearts"- one night only! April 19, 2009, 8 pm at
Merkin Hall near Lincoln Center. There will be a reception/book signing with Sharon Rich after the performance.
Our
actual club meeting in NYC will be earlier in the day. We'll be showing
some rare video clips, have a Q&A session with Sharon Rich have a memorabilia sale and spend the afternoon
together! We will also be screening excerpts of some of the interviews quoted in the biography "Sweethearts." Here are the details:

After
the meeting, those that want to join us will head out to an affordable
nearby restaurant (to be chosen, so make sure to budget that in) and
after that, the group will head over to the Merkin Theater for the 8 pm
performance!

the Merkin Hall show by emailing this flyer to friends/family that may

Now - please go to the Merkin Hall website right now to get your tickets for the evening. Merkin has assigned seating like a Broadway show so don't delay if you want the best possible seats!
Next - if you are coming from out-of-town, please make your reservation at the same Holiday Inn - where the entire group will be staying. You can call the number above and make a reservation; however, we confirmed with Group Sales at the hotel that the BEST RATE you can get is on the Internet right now - between $152-$177 per room, depending on how many beds you need. All the discount websites are offering the same prices, so we would appreciate it if you would purchase your hotel room reservation at this link:
Click on "hotels", type in NYC, the dates you need, how many people/beds. You will get a page of available hotels - make sure you scroll down and choose the Holiday Inn Midtown 57th St! Then you will have your choices of rooms. Again - grab it fast before room choices go away and/or prices go up.
If you are flying in, you can also use our travel site to purchase discount airline tickets. We have set up this new travel site because we have so many club events coming up that involve travel (more cruises, etc.) that we'd rather offer travel through our own site and help the club!
Finally, would you also help promote the Merkin Hall show by emailing this flyer to friends/family that may be interested? The link for the flyer is here.
