Good evening,
I have wonderful news. This year's Robert Burns dinner is our fifth year anniversary and we intend to make it bigger and better than anything we have done in the past. We have gone from a small group five years ago in the front room of Paragon Tap and Table in Clark, NJ to taking over the entire restaurant on a Monday night. Yes that is correct, we will have the entire restaurant. To celebrate the work of Robert Burns, enjoy the pipes, the grand food, outstanding scotch slelections, the friendship and most importantly raise money so that others may thrive.
In the time Taming the Tempest has existed we have raised over $13,000 and it has all gone directly to our cause, assisting those that have suffered the deadly effects of a ruptured aneurysm. I will be sending out more information soon. I wanted to get this out so those of us that want to get a jump on your tickets can do so.
A number of us have already purchased tickets having seen the flyers and posters in Paragon Tap and Table. Though we have the entire restaurant I want to make sure there will be plenty of room to enjoy ourselves. So if you want to get a jump on your tickets please feel free to do so.
There will also be other ways to support the cause I will be sending out. It should be noted there are a number of us that do not particularly care for scotch or alcohol but want to support the cause. Please get in touch with me and I will make it work. I guarantee you will have a grand evening.
So please have a wonderful holiday. You will be hearing from me again very soon. Have a peaceful evening.
Yours truly,
John Odin
President Taming the Tempest.
