Mitt Romney's campaign has planned a string of activities for donors around the debates, including a three-day "victory retreat' at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in Manhattan overlapping with the Oct. 16 debate at Hofstra University, according to a copy of the invitation obtained by POLITICO.

The schedule of events can be viewed here. But it includes a dinner at the Intrepid Museum on the West Side of Manhattan, a debate watch party at Roseland Ballroom, and panels including a campaign strategy briefing and one on the final three weeks of the race.

The event, first reported by CNN, appears to be patterned on the Utah retreat the campaign held over the summer. There are other, smaller events planned around the other debates, including debate watch parties and invitations to the national finance "victory green room."
