You are invited to the Second Annual Patriots Dinner honoring our Founding Father, Gen. George Washington, on the 220th anniversary of his death.

Dale Corey and the SAR Honor Guard will open the after dinner program. A short presentation on “George Washington and the Constitution” by Mark Donovan, retired Army officer, will be followed by stories by the Liberty Man – “Young George, the Virginia Boy who became the Father of his Country.” Master James McFadden will recite a portion of the General’s farewell address to his troops. The McFadden Girls will perform an original dance prepared especially for this occasion. We will close the evening by all singing Christmas Carols led by the McFadden Girls.
