The Ben Graham Dinner for 2015


NormR

Recommended Posts

This year's Ben Graham dinner will be held, as usual, the night before the FFH Dinner and Dr George's Value Conference.  It's designed to be a casual affair for people arriving early for the various events on the 15th of April and for any locals who want to drop by.

 

The Ben Graham Dinner is a much smaller event than the FFH Dinner, but it has grown over the last few years.  As a result, I'll need to issue "tickets" because space is limited. 

 

If you'd like to join the festivities, send an email with the subject "Ben Graham Dinner 2015" to

info at ndir dot com  (replace the 'at' and 'dot' with the appropriate symbols.) 

 

I'll email the final dinner location to those who email in a RSVP and get a ticket.  The tickets are free while they last.  So, reserve your spot soon!

 

The Ben Graham Dinner

Date: April 14, 2015

Time: 5 PM - 10 PM

Registration: Send in an RSVP to get a ticket.

Details: The restaurant is in the downtown core and close to the Royal York.  I'll send along the details to ticket holders a few days before the event.

Norm I'd like to attend. Let me know if there's still space left.

Looks like we're full up.  I'll put people on a waiting list.  So, if you got a ticket but find you can't make it, please let me know and someone else will get to go.

 

Looks like we can move to a larger part of the restaurant.  If so, more tickets will be available.  I'll post updates ASAP

I can confirm that more space is available and I've opened up the list again for those who want to join us.  I'll email those on the waiting list with the good news this evening.

 

At the moment, about 65 people will be attending.  8)

Terrific Norm!  I think it will be wonderful.

 

I'll apologize ahead of time that I won't be able to make it this year.  Due to this being our 10th Anniversary FFH Dinner and the beginning of our 10th Year for the MPIC Funds, I've got a bunch of family coming with me to Toronto...I'll be occupying them outside of the FFH Dinner, the Fairfax AGM and the MPIC Fund's AGM.  Cheers!

Given the large numbers involved, the restaurant would like a fairly accurate head count well before the event.  So, if you want to join us, email me ASAP.  Similarly, if you have to cancel, please let me know ASAP.  Thanks!

While the restaurant can likely accommodate a few more people, anyone who wants a ticket after this post goes up will have to make at least a $10 donation to The Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of Canada in penance.

I'd like to thank everyone for making the Ben Graham Dinner a great success!  We had a little more than 60 people make it out this year.  :)

 

Nice Norm!  Please feel free to post any pictures you guys might have.

 

Cheers!

Thanks
