GGFG Regimental Association Reunion 2019
TICKETS ON SALE!
Fellow Guardsmen we are looking forward to seeing you all once again at a great night of food, friends and music at Reunion 2019. Tickets are $65.00 with proceeds going to support association activities and our beloved regiment. Up The Guards!
This year we are trying a new, less formal approach that still includes the most important features of camaraderie, military music, and maintaining a connection with the serving members of the GGFG.
As part of this new format we are planning the following changes:
-
A complimentary tour of the Canadian War Museum where we we will perform an act of remembrance in front of the regiment's WWII era Sherman Tank of Forceful III.
-
Opportunities to interact with current military kit used by the regiment and see what's changed since last you wore the uniform.
-
Try your aim on the simulated small arms range.
-
Visit the Regimental Museum.
-
A short and sweet Annual General Meeting (with beers on tap).
-
Learn what we're planning for the upcoming 150th anniversary of the GGFG in 2022.
-
Try an example of our celebratory whisky.
-
A more casual, buffet style meal (with a much broader menu choice) rather than a formal jacket-and-tie dinner in the style of a mess dinner.
Dress Instruction
Smart Casual. Jeans acceptable, no tears please - You're still a Guard!
