“NIGHT AT THE OPERA”
The Silvermine History Dinners are back—juicy bits and all!
Did you know that some of the most important opera singers in America lived in Silvermine? Come to a special Silvermine History Dinner being held at a new and beautiful location, the Silvermine Golf Club, to hear about —and to hear—the opera stars of Silvermine!
The “Night at
the Opera” begins at 6:30 p.m. with a cash bar, the
presentation is at 7:00 and is accompanied by a family-style
dinner. The cost is $29 and includes a sumptuous 4 course
meal with 3 hearty main entrees and gratuity. Reservations
are required and can be made, using the link to your left, by
credit card or PayPal. Alternatively a check can be sent to
Eleanor Sasso at the address below. We MUST receive your reservation no later than March 18th!
This event is open to SCA members in good standing and their guests living outside of Silvermine... only. Seating is limited to the first 75 people that respond; judging from past experience, these dinners fill up quickly as Jerry
Gleason guides us into the Silvermine of our ancestors with humor and pluck!!
Join the Silvermine Community Association on line, at the Silvermine Market, or at the door when you come to the History Dinner.
