This was an acclaimed success. The lunch at Strawberry Fields was wonderful.  An amazing feature of the lunch was that it was delivered from a local deli to the corner of 72nd Street and Central Park West and paid for by check with no deposit having been required!  As they say -- only in New York. The quiz, concocted by The Gazette Editors, Lon Cohen and Jean Quinn, was devilishly difficult.

The tour guide, a volunteer from The Central Park Conservancy who has read the Wolfe books(!), provided an informative and beautiful tour, starting on the bridle path. Well, a turtle race siphoned off 2 errant Pack spouses.  Pat, our guide, surmised that the building above The Band shell, once known as The Casino, was almost certainly a haunt of Archie, as it was of Major Jimmy Walker, who often was the last out the door of this hot spot of New York night life.
