Hamilton Manor Cancels "Make It Write!"

Dec. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- "It was only brought to the Manors attention yesterday afternoon as to the legalities of the event.  We have had many similar events at our facility since we opened and other facilities continue to do the same.  The law clearly states we are (not) prohibited to hold events with vendors under the ABC.  We are truly sorry for the inconvenience. it was not our intention to cancel..  I will personally give everyone a ten dollar gift certificate to our restaurant involved with the event."  

'On behalf of The Manor we are sorry and look forward to helping you plan other events'

   Now, heading into 2012, they are getting the support of The Love of Neighbor Caravan in order to either maintain their level of service or increase the number of individuals and families they serve.
