The day is coming

The Eleven Eleven Club's 2011 event will be a once-in-a-century experience. While annual meetings of the past have been fun, memorable, and profitable, this year's extravaganza at the Atlantic City Harrah's Resort promises to kick it up not just a notch, but all the way to eleven. So, save the date... Friday, November 11, 2011.

What you need to know

While each guest may feel the need to customize their visit, we recommend the following game plan as your basic guide to optimize your experience with us.

  • Friday, November 11, 2011 (11-11-11) creates an iconic date triple that happens only once every century. Take the day off from work. Arrange for overnight baby sitting and pet sitting. Don't short-change your visit by getting stuck in rush-hour traffic on Friday evening. Clear your calendar.
  • You'll need a place to sleep. Book a room (soon!) at Harrah's or one of the neighboring casino hotels (prices as of June 11):
- Harrah's offers rooms as low as $293.86 (including taxes and fees)
- Borgata offers rooms as low as $259.66 (including taxes and fees)
- Golden Nugget (the former Trump Marina) offer rooms as low as $152.06 (including taxes and fees)
Plenty of space to mingle
A room with a view
  • We have reserved a 1,255-square-foot Waterfront Corner Suite that will serve as our base of operations for the entire group, from 4:11 PM Friday until 12:12 AM Saturday. We ask for a $33-per-person "hospitality fee" to help cover costs for this spacious visiting area, hot foods, bartender, games, and souvenirs.
  • Bring your own beer, wine, and/or liquor. We will provide the wet bar, ice, refrigerator space, soda, mixers, cups, cherries, lemon and lime wedges, salt, blender, etc.
  • Bring an appetizer or snack (at least 11 servings) that does not need to be heated before serving. We will also order hot foods via room service. We plan to serve food between 6:11 PM and 8:11 PM.
  • Obviously, bring your $11 for the community bet on black eleven at 11:11 PM, down on the casino floor.
  • Take a dip, 82 degrees in November
    Bring your swimsuit. The main indoor pool at Harrah's is adults-only and environmentally controlled for year-round comfort.

Who gets to sleep in the master suite bedroom?

The Waterfront Corner Suite comes with a king bed master bedroom and a master bathroom that are worth fighting over.

One heck of a water closet

While the suite's registration defaults to the Eleven Eleven Club president's name, he generously has decided to put this suite up for grabs via a raffle-auction. That's right, you could be the happy occupant of this Waterfront Corner Suite master bedroom and bath, beginning at 12:12 AM on Saturday. Here's how the raffle-auction will work:

  1. Every couple or guest that has reserved their own room may enter the raffle-auction. Each reserved room will pay a non-refundable $33 stake to enter the raffle. (This fee will go toward compensating the pre-paid cost of the Suite.)
  2. Each stake will place three single-unit bets on one digital roulette spin (which will be executed in the Suite at 9:11 PM Friday). For example, Anne and Todd might select "black", 17-20 split, and the 34 street for their three bets; while Ed and Jen might place all three bets on the number 19.
  3. The stake that wins the most as a result of that one digital roulette spin will be awarded first claim to the master bedroom and bath.
  4. That claimant then has the immediate option of auctioning off the claim to the master bedroom and bath to the highest cash bidder (who must have participated in the raffle). The claimant then either accepts the bid and transfers the claim to the highest bidder, or rejects all bids and keeps the master suite.
  5. The final possessor of the master suite then immediately swaps room keys with the president of the Eleven Eleven Club, so that he and his spouse will have a place to sleep. (With that in mind, we ask that all who intend to participate in the master suite raffle-auction at 9:11 PM, please keep your own room in a tidy fashion until that point, and do not disturb the bedding, as it is possible that the club president will be sleeping in your room, while you enjoy the splendor of the Waterfront Corner Suite.
