The Third Coming
After six months of negotiations with the current owners and lessors of 338-340 West King Street, I am now pleased to announce that there will be an after party immediately following the end of the reunion on June 7th at the Knights of Columbus. It won’t be cheap as it has already cost me in excess of $2,000 to obtain the necessary rights, permits and permissions but … $100 will gain you entrance into the 340 Club itself before midnight (no admittance after 12) on June 7/8, Tickets will be limited to the first 40 persons and are expected to sell out fast. A beer toast will occur just after midnight offered by the 340 Kegman. The 340 Club Bear will jump from the 3rd floor window at 1:00 a.m. Lancaster City Police will have the 300 block of West King Street closed to vehicular traffic between midnight and 3:00 a.m. I have obtained permission for guests – must show tickets to the attendant – to park in the Christ Lutheran Church lot on the corner. Both Mr. Martin and Mr. Kratzert, landlords, of 328 and 338-340, are expected to attend. I hope to see all of you there; get your tickets now. [Oh, and Coach: don’t bother sending a check … you will be my guest. I gotcha covered)

Tee: thanks for the invite as guest; Last week,I was thinking, how can we celebrate the 340 without the bear jumping. Your announcement of the rental and access to the 340 house and the bear jumping will surly bring back the good old times and will add to the success of this reunion. (hopefully this isnt an April fool) Great idea and nice job making it happen! Coach
Alas, as you feared (expected?), the post was indeed connected to the date it was written. However I agree with you bout the bear. More good news your new 340 Club card should be in the mail next week, "00", if my memory serves me. The prototype will be on display in the curator's corner next Monday.
