Baby Shower Venue in the Seacoast

So I am in charge in finding an affordable venue to have our baby shower at and I live in Dover NH. I want to know if any of you have any ideas, within a 20 mile radius of Dover. By affordable I mean something under 300 for a couple hours of rental and we plan on supplying our own food and non alcoholic beverages for those under 21. Thanks girls!

    I would check area clubs like Elks, Moose, Knights of Columbus, ITAM etc. Usually the hall rental fee is inexpensive and they allow you to use their kitchen or bring in your own food. 
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

    Google some state parks near you. Usually there is a pavillion you can rent for cheap.

    Wish I knew a specific place, but also a larger church will allow you to rent their hall as well. It is normally not too pricey and you do not have to be a member. They generally have some area with a kitchen and meeting space. You coudl probably find a really cool older church up there too. As an idea. Not sure on all the rules but I have been to one furthur south and the host had wine at the shower and the church was fine with that. GL!!

    For parks - Four Tree Island in Portsmouth (near Prescott Park).  All they ask for is a donation of your choice.  They have a nice covered area.  The only problem is you have to stake out the space the day of, you can't reserve the space.  But it's a really nice location.  Or there's Hilton Park on Dover Point.

    I would also recommend the Elks, Moose, etc.  If you know a member you can get a discount.  My neighbor is a member of the Elks and I'm thinking about asking him if he can help me out for my shower. 

    Or a local church?  I hosted a baby shower at one in Rochester once.  The grandmother was a member so we were able to use the downstairs for the party for no $$.

    You might be able to do a local restaurant for a little more money and have an appetizer thing.  Doesn't Fogarty's in S. Berewick have an upstairs?
