Mountaintop Lodge Proud Mark your calendars you do not want to miss this. The Lake Naomi Club is proud to present the newly renovated Platinum Club Mountaintop Lodge. The first series of open houses for the Members are scheduled for Wednesday, April 18th from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM; Saturday, April 21st from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM and Sunday, April 22nd from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. After five short months of dedicated service from the entire Lake Naomi Club Team the damages have been repaired, many original surfaces have been restored and the LNC’s Platinum Club touches have been added. In addition there has been many hours put in by Club Volunteers of the Lodge Task Force in developing the detailed comprehensive Operational Plan of the Mountaintop Lodge. This group of volunteers, as your representatives, has met monthly in developing this plan and approving the enhancements that have been added to the Lodge. Everyone is excited for the doors to open so you can see the vision of the Lodge Task Force. One of the enhancements the group is most excited about is the Mountaintop Lodge Coffee/ Pastry Shop. The Management Team has worked with Scott Bortz the founder and CEO of Hard Bean Coffee and Café Construction Company (www.hardbean.com). Through this contact the Club will be a preferred purchaser from his tried and tested suppliers and bean roasters. Members can enjoy a great cup of coffee including cappuccino, espresso and specialty coffee drinks. In addition the Club is proud to announce the hiring of Pastry Chef Don Thayer. Don comes to the Club most recently from Mount Airy Casino as their Pastry Chef and as the Pastry Chef of the Cheesecake Factory in Swiftwater. Don owned and operated his own Pastry Shop for 18 years in San Diego, California. Don specializes in cakes and pastries and is more than excited to showcase his creations at the Mountaintop Lodge. The Coffee/Pastry Shop is scheduled to be in full operation Monday, April 30th. A special thanks goes out to Lodge A-Team which includes Project Manager Scott Hall, Operations Manager Tim Brooks, Operations Coordinator Meredith Sensenig and interior decorator Beth Evans. During this renovation process this team’s “super powers” emerged. No plumbing problem, electrical damage, mold remediation, township approvals, or budget limitations was too large or too small for this team. Many pieces of the antiques that were included in the purchase could not be saved. But through countless hours and many miles, Beth was able to find the perfect pieces for each and every room. Many color pallets, wall paper samples, countertops, wood finishes, not to mention curtains and bedding were discussed and agonized over, the end result is A M A Z I N G…. In the next couple weeks the Club will have pictures taken along with 360 degree video tours shot and added to www.Mountaintoplodge.com website. Once this is updated you will be notified through the Club’s Weekly Eblast. Make sure you attend one of these open houses so you can be amazed and spread the word to your friends and family. It is not too soon to book your special event. Clubhouse Manager, Peter Koryttko is happy to discuss your party. The Lodge can accommodate parties up to 50 people inside and up to 160 people if the party is outside in the courtyard and the deck. Carolyn Keiper has taken on the role as Hospitality Manager of the Mountaintop Lodge and is at her new office in the Lodge. If you have any questions give Carolyn a call at 570-646-6636.
