Ann Arbor Fraternity Lodge #262 and Golden Rule #159 will be hosting a festive board on Wednesday June 23rd, 2010 to celebrate St. John’s Day. This event will be be from 7:00 PM-10:00 PM and will be held at the Zal Gaz Grotto (2070 West Stadium Blvd, Ann Arbor, MI, 48103).
This is not a tiled event. Business casual attire is recommended for this evening of fellowship, celebration and education.
Following dinner, but before desert, Worshipful Brother Justin Krasnoff will be giving a fantastic presentation centered on the Battle of Gettysburg and emphasizing the many Freemasons on both sides who participated in and led the battle. Those that have previously heard Justin present some of this material say that he is an amazingly knowledgeable and enjoyable speaker. We look forward to his presentation.
Here is the menu as it currently stands. We will start out the night with an appetizer of humus and pita bread and veggies and dip. The first course will be either soup or salad. The salad will a lettuce wedge with tomatoes with blue cheese crumbles and your choice of dressing. The soup will Passato di Ceci which is made of pureed chickpea and rosemary. There will be three choices for the main entree. The first choice will be a strip steak served with baked potato and vegetable. The second choice is chicken parmesan and cannelloni with marinara sauce served with vegetables. For our vegetarian brothers we will additionally serve a large portion cannelloni with vegetables. For desert we will be serving strawberry rhubarb pie and strawberry pie and ice cream. To accompany our meal we will be serving wine and a non-alcoholic beverage.
This is open to all Freemasons - so please make sure all EAs and FCs are invited to this event.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Because of the need to coordinate food and service, we will require all brothers who wish to attend to RSVP. The cutoff for RSVP will be June 14th. This can be done by contacting either Clinton Bartholomew or Jim Larkin by phone or email. The total cost for the event will be $20 per person.
The food, festivities and brotherhood should make this a memorable night and a truly enjoyable way to celebrate St. John’s Day. We look forward to seeing you all there.
