Burns Supper - last chance for tickets!

General NewsDear Alumni,

We look forward to welcoming you on Saturday January 30th, 2010. In answer to your questions:

Yes, if you are a member you may pay the $75 rate for your guests. Patrons automatically become members.

Yes, there will be vegetarian haggis if you prefer- please let us know as soon as possible if you would like that option and did not so elect already on Paypal.

Yes, there will be wine with your appetizer and entree.

Yes, the whisky toasts will be with single malt Scotch-- Glenmorangie, in fact.

Yes, there will be Scottish Country Dancing to The Devil's Tailors. We'll definitely enjoy the Dashing White Sergeant and the Gay Gordons. And we'll try the Eightsome Reel and maybe Strip the Willow. Remember that the Dashing White Sergeant is danced in a three with either one lady and two gentlemen, or one gentleman and two ladies.

In fact, we've asked the band to remind us of the steps to the Dashing White Sergeant and the Gay Gordons as they set up beforehand. Anyone arriving at 5:30 will be given a lesson.

Apologies to anybody who previously tried to buy tickets but encountered problems with the paypal site - the issue has been resolved so buying tickets should be plain sailing!
