As President of the Officers’ Mess of His Majesty’s Garrison at York, I wish to advise you that the annual Friends of Fort York and Garrison Common “Georgian Mess Dinner” will be enjoyed on Thursday, 1 November 2012. The Friends respectfully invite you to join us in commemoration of the Bicentennial of the War of 1812.
This year’s Dinner will mark the 14th year for a special fundraiser to support the Fort York Guard and Fife and Drum who provide lively animation at Fort York National Historic Site. The money raised this Bicentennial year will be especially important given increased programming and travelling to represent Fort York at other historical sites and events.
The Friends are fortunate again to have the Volunteer Historic Cooks, Berkley Hospitality, and the staff at Fort York, who help us to offer the only authentic Georgian fine dining experience in Ontario. Don’t miss this special opportunity to dine as the officers did in the Georgian era at Fort York. You are guaranteed a fabulous meal and you will be helping an irreplaceable asset in the Fort York Guard.
This event is by invitation, and is extended only to members of The Friends of Fort York and Garrison Common and to Corporate Sponsors. To receive your invitation, become a member today by joining online at our website www.fortyork.ca. Space is limited. To become a sponsor please inquire at sponsor@fortyork.ca.
Sincerely,
Richard Dodds
President of the Officers’ Mess of His Majesty’s Garrison at York
