Check this link out. It's in Chatham, NY, a couple hours north of the city. With an early start, it could be a daytrip...a long day, but sounds like lots of fun! I think we have enough cars if the Manhattan folks are willing to meet drivers outside the city...any interest?

? Path station < Path are limited to lower manhattan, with the most northern/uptown smack in the middle 34 street Herald Sqr MAJOR Crowd bad traffic, for a Car pool pick meet up spot ? I think most of the JERSEY Kilt Crowd would come into the city via Railroad/ <42 street >Lincoln Tunnel or Port Authority Bus

How about the choice between uptown 200 street and maybe 42 Street 8/9 th Avenues? This way people coming from the East side of manhattan can come straight cross town. Those coming from Queens (A/C/E/7) Brooklyn "A" , 2/3 trains can also easily reach 42 street-TIMES Sqr, and folks from Jersey regardless if driving or Bus Port Authority

The point of offering a New Jersey site (PATH train station) is to make it easier for the NJ drivers by not making them come into the city. (You can get to the Taconic without coming into Manhattan.)

It's real easy for drivers coming from the east (LI) to get to Northern Manhattan via the Tri-borough bridge or the FDR and the Harlem River Drive.

driving in the city is a pain no matter what part...and do keep in mind that games are on the eastern side of the river

I'm still a bit up in the air about the day as well. It sounds like a good time though.

As for driving, I'm not sure. I'd probably have to see about borrowing a car for the trip unless I can get some work done on mine before hand.

I'll keep you posted.
