<p>If I have followed this string, this would be the evening of
Tuesday, May 21. I am not sure exactly what "happy hour" means to
this venue. In the past we have done our listserv receptions in
various time slots such as 5-7 PM or 6-8 PM. <br>
</p>
<p>There is a lot to be said for grabbing this opportunity while it
remains available. Lots of the good venues and time slots are
probably taken by now.</p>
<p>Basically we pay in advance for $4000 worth of food and
beverages. Plus a $800 tip. And if we do not manage to spend the
full $4000, we have to pay that much anyway. Which is to be
expected. In past events people have arrived and departed at
various times. Typically over the course of an evening we see 75
people come and go. At any given instant the max number of people
in the room is typically 40-50.</p>
<p>The venue people surely do not care whether we do or do not
actually run 75 people through the room, so long as we cough up
the $4800.<br>
</p>
<p>I bet we could find sponsorship contributions within the listserv
to cover a $4800 event.</p>
<p>I pledge $1000 toward the event. I wonder if we have consensus
on this?</p>

put in inquiries at Thrive, Park Bar, and Meehans for
Tuesday at happy hour time. So far, I received the response
below from Park Bar, which has a private room. If we have
75 people show up, that would be about $53 per person
minimum. I don’t mind kicking in that amount for drinks,
appetizers and getting to network with you all in person.
But, I don’t know if 75 is a realistic number and how others
feel about that. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

Thanks for your interest in Park Bar's
private event space. <br>
<br>
The room is available May 21st only. There
is no charge for the room. There is no
fee for the room. We require that you
spend a minimum of $4000 food and drinks
(plus 20% gratuity) . Depending on the
setup, we can hold 50 to 150 people. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Most of our events that
involve serving food are served banquet
style. There are some exceptions to this
where we may be able to do plated food,
but that is evaluated on a case by case
basis, and if that is something that you
require for your event, please let us know
so we can discuss further and determine
if it is feasible for your particular
event. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
Thanks for thinking of us for your party.
If you are interested in reserving the
room, we require a $2000 deposit to hold
the date for you. It is non-refundable in
the event of cancellation. It will be
returned to you once your minimums are
reached on the date of the event, or can
be applied to your tab, as needed.
Deposits must be received at least 7 days
before the planned event day. Exceptions
to this rule can be made but must be
approved by management to ensure staffing
can be arranged on short notice. Minimums
must be met by actual consumption on
premises during the hours allowed for the
event. That means Gift Cards or "To Go"
food orders are not allowed as a way to
fulfill the minimum spend guarantee. <br>
<br>
Please let me know if you have any other
questions. We look forward to hearing from
you. <br>
<br>
Sincerely, <br>

FAQ- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS <br>
<br>
1) Are you saying that I have to pay you
$4000 just to rent the room? That doesn't
include food or drinks? <br>
ANSWER: Not at all. We require you to
spend $4000 in food and drinks. It is not
a fee. You get $4000 worth of our
delicious food and thirst quenching
beverages <br>
<br>
2) Do you offer full venue rentals? <br>
ANSWER: Absolutely, please inquire
specifically as rates may vary <br>
<br>
3) Once I pay you the $2000 deposit, how
do I get it back? <br>
ANSWER: It is refunded to you on the night
of the event once the minimum is met and
all tabs are paid. <br>
<br>
4) How long would my event last? <br>
ANSWER: Our bookings are for 4 hours. If
you require a longer event, please let us
know. We can almost always accommodate. <br>
<br>
5) What is your standard fee or rental
rate for the room? Is it always $4000? <br>
ANSWER: There is no fee or standard
rental rate. The $4000 is just what we
require you to spend on drinks or food.
If you would like a straight rental rate,
please inquire about that. <br>
<br>
6) Do you offer open bar or unlimited food
options? <br>
ANSWER: Yes. Rates vary depending on the
size of your group. Our rates are among
the best in town. <br>
<br>
7) Are you willing to do a different
agreement other than the $4000 fee? <br>
ANSWER: The $4000 is not a fee, it is just
a minimum we require in sales. As far as
different agreements, we will listen to
any offers, and would love to match any
other arrangements you may be considering.
