This is the first time in almost 20 years that the WNPF is back in New Rochelle, NY. This is where most WNPF meets took place in the early 90’s. We hope that all of the WNPF lifters will join us from NY, NJ, CT, MA, RI, NH, VT and all other states on June 3, 2012. This is a first class facility to hold an event! We hope in the near future to hold a WNPF World Championships here at this location but it will take the support of the WNPF lifters/family to do so. This hotel has a restaurant (City Chow House) and lounge (The City Martini Lounge) and there are many restaurants within 5 minutes from the hotel. The hotel is within walking distance from Amtrak and Metro North trains. They also offer sleep number beds, flat screen tv’s, wi-fi internet, refrigerators and more in the rooms. They also have a fitness Center, outdoor pool and airport Shuttle Service to LGA and JFK. LET’S MAKE THIS A GREAT WNPF EVENT IN NEW YORK!
