AWS Fall Dinner 2024

As the evenings become a little chillier, we say farewell to summer and welcome the autumn and all its glorious colour. This will be our first dinner event at Toronto Lawn and Tennis but based on our recent experience there for the AGM, our expectations are for a warm welcome, with fine food and great service.

Our cellar master Joe Gentile has curated wines from our own cellar to complement the meal. This will begin with a selection of reception wines to tease the palate at 6:30 p.m. then the dinner seating at 7:00 p.m..

Cost will be $105 for AWS members, $115.00 for guests of members and $125 for non-members. All taxes and gratuities are included. PayPal fees may apply.
