Can I add an include in with page text?

I have had a challenging few weeks so I guess this is nothing out of the ordinary but I think I'm doing something wrong. 

The contact-info.php & contact-info2.php pages are dynamically created and although they contain the same info on both pages - they come up fine by themselves ( http://www.irmahotelcody.com/contact-info.php )

I changed "blog" to "menus", change the inserted file names  & added "#insert_contact#" into the 'content' field on the menus page.
The page just comes up blank in the browser so I deleted the #insert_content# and same result so I put them back in. That's telling me it's something in the header. I pasted it below - maybe you can see something that I'm not.  Thanks!!!!
