Let's ring in the New Year with great friends and delicious food at our favorite Japanese Steakhouse. Dinner starts at 8:30 at the hibachi grills (menu choices below). First round of drinks are 2 - for - 1. After dinner mingling and dancing in the bar and side room where we will have dance music and a big screen TV to watch the count down until the ball drops in Times Square.

Otaki's owner and manager are offering our group the use of the dining room (after dinner) to use for music and dancing at no charge. Big screen TVs are located in the bar and in the dining room. They will also provide the champagne for our Midnight Toast! This was the best deal the organizers were able to find to keep the cost down.

This is a combined event with the Friends 40's & 50's Group. Please only RSVP on one site. If you are a member of the Jax Travel Group please only RSVP on this site. This will make it easier for us to keep a head count.

Happy New Year! Welcome 2010!! Mona, Theresa & Patty will be at the bar by 8pm.

       Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate 2010! Thanks to Theresa for organizing - I had a great time and it was so much fun seeing old friends and meeting new ones. The food was delicious - the service could have been better but for New Years Eve I think the bartenders, service staff and the chefs did a great job. The DJ got everyone dancing and I would have stayed longer had it not been for all the smoke from the fireworks. Happy New Year - may 2010 bring health, prosperity and peace to all of our members and their families... 
    •  Food and service was great, what a great party place too
