This year New York City will help host a quintessential American tradition for the first time, Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium. With countless people from around the country expected to come watch America’s greatest sporting event, we are rolling out the red carpet with a series of fan-friendly events.

    Report of the 2012-2013 Local Arrangements Committee, New York, NY July 10, 2013 Chair: Angie Beeman Committee Members: Carolle Charles, Francesca Degiuli, Manissa McCleave Maharawal (graduate student) Rifat Salam, Karen Tejada, and Thomas Volscho Annual Meeting Site: This year’s site visit was held at the Westin New York at Times Square November 15-17, 2012 Site Visit: Angie Beeman was unable to attend the morning site visit in November, but met Michele Koontz, Ricardo Dello Buono, and David Fasenfest for dinner on November 15th. We discussed some ideas on promoting the meetings through social media and email blasts. We also talked about the kinds of tours we should pursue and the best days to schedule them. Angie shared the details of the meeting with the committee and Rifat Salam suggested Big Onion Walking Tours. David, Ricardo, and Angie met again in December and decided on the “Historic Harlem” and “Gay and Lesbian History: Before Stonewall” tours. At that time, we also realized that SSSP had two facebook accounts, which needed to be merged into one. Ricardo further discussed arranging the Maul Girls Reunion Concert. Program: Angie wrote the “Welcome to City” message in late February. The message offered information on popular and lesser known sites in New York City, especially those that might be of interest to conference goers, and highlighted Big Onion Walking tours and sites connected to SSSP’s meetings. Manissa McCleave Maharawal, a CUNY Graduate Center student, wrote a Welcome to the City for graduate students and anyone on a budget. Her message discussed the changes to Times Square over the years and included a detailed list of tasty, inexpensive restaurants and food trucks near the conference hotel as well as dining excursions to Brooklyn.

The transaction puts Classic Coach in direct competition with Hampton Jitney, the Southampton service that carries passengers between New York City and the Hamptons. Classic Coach's schedule will include six daily roundtrips with its 55-seat luxury coaches that include DirectTV and Internet service. "The transaction was relatively straightforward," said Joe Campolo, partner at Campolo Middleton.

We worked hard on the details, did some tough negotiating, and got the deal done in record time." "Adding the Hamptons run gives our company a broader customer base," said Bill Schoolman, President of Classic Coach." Since 2002, we've tripled our revenue in motor coach charters between Long Island and Atlantic City. We also have a good share of the New York metro charter market, with many high school clubs, senior travel groups, and tour operators as customers. This acquisition helps round out our market base."
