Comedian Wayne Cotter has entertained audiences nationwide as an acclaimed standup comedian, talk show favorite, and host of Fox Television’s “Comic Strip Live.”

Ultimate Boston Sports Fan
Enjoy any Celtics Eastern Conference game in a luxury suite with 19 of your closest friends! Feast on all of the hamburgers, hotdogs, and pizza you can eat, while watching your child run around the Garden parquet as the ballboy or ballgirl for the night. Park in the exclusive players’ lot and remember the experience forever with jerseys signed by Paul Pierce and Delonte West.

Daniel Sauer Celebrity Chef Dinner for Ten

The Best of Italy... in Boston!

Luxury Getaway to the Adirondacks
Anyone interested in experiencing the beauty of the wilderness while experiencing a level of luxury and service that few resorts anywhere can match should visit The Point. Housed in a gorgeous Great Camp built during the 1930s by William Avery Rockefeller on Upper Saranac Lake, in New York's Adirondacks, The Point provides accommodations to no more than 22 guests at a time. The 11 rooms are in four different buildings; each offers vast beds, lake views and fireplaces, and is filled with an exquisite mixture of antiques, rustic Adirondack furniture, Oriental rugs, old prints and stuffed trophies. Both the menu and wine collection are superb. The Point, recognized by the readers of Conde Nast “Traveler” as their favorite hotel, can serve either as a place for relaxation, or as a base for boating, golf, tennis, skiing, riding, hiking or virtually any other outdoor activity imaginable.

This item includes three nights at The Point for a couple (room and meals), as well as round-trip airfare from Logan to the Adirondack Airport in nearby Saranac Lake. The Point will arrange to pick you up at the airport, and if you are inclined to wander off The Point you can borrow one of their Lexus SUVs.
