We need 3 meals a day for 14 people for 2 days.

What can we do about food? We eat Chalav Yisroel and Glatt.

If it's only for 2 days, why not just bring it with you? I assume wherever you're staying has a refrigerator, and maybe a microwave? You could bring disposable grills or a George Foreman and make bbq one night. You could bring Pomegranate or Mealmart double-wrapped meals and warm them up. For lunches get a lot of bagels and tuna, cream cheese, etc. For breakfast you could do cereal and milk (if you bring it frozen, or get it straight into the fridge), oatmeal, or just buy some muffins, rugelach, and other mezonos.

I imagine your room has a fridge. Can't you bring food from home?
Breakfast: cereal and milk.
Lunch: sandwiches (pb&j, cream cheese, Tuna
Dinner: cold cuts, roast chicken, salads (there are lots of food that's good room temp)

We always travel with more food than luggage, freeze milks cheese meat etc and get rooms with fridge.
We bring electric grill, sandwich maker, and hot water plugin kettle. Lots of paper goods and all the condiments desired.

I pack up sharp knives and silverware for handling food in a milchig sack and a fleishig sack and we only eat out once or twice if even on trips.

I'm not sure what closest restaurant would be but it'd probably be about hour and half away.

Aside from the kosher food sold in Hershey park and cherry crest farm.
(I believe they have a hot dog stand for one night and pizza during day... It will not be cheap for 14 peeps though!)

If money is so not an issue... Enjoy. Otherwise you'll spend less and get more if you pack your own meals.
Divide each meal into a suitcase if needed.

This is the info for kosher food in Lancaster:
http://www.centralpaskoshermart.com/
there are milchig and fleishig options. You don't have to pay to enter the parks to get the food.

Philly is probably the closest and a long drive
