36. If we are having that big of a group
I have connections at The Happy Gnome, I can see if they have anything going on that day in their fireside room, if they don't I am sure they would let us have it. Only problem I see is their dinner menu (only one served upstairs) starts at about 20 bucks a plate, which might be more than some want to spend, even though their food is generally very good and of high quality.
