WHAT IS DINING WITH THE AMBASSADORS?
Dining with the Ambassadors is a unique twist on the “dinner at an official residence” format, and as much as anything else, a celebration of neighbours.
The evening begins with a pre-dinner reception for all guests and hosts – the largest gathering of Rockcliffe neighbours - at the Rockcliffe Community Hall. It is only at this reception that our diplomatic neighbours and dinner hosts are revealed! Memorable dinners follow and friendships are made. Over the years, this fundraiser has grown into a favourite neighbourhood tradition.
Funds raised fund the Rockcliffe newsletter and RPRA events including our neighbourhood’s Heritage Walk, Movie Night, Rockcliffe Community Tree Day, Speakers Program, and the Children’s Holiday Party. Funds raised also support the Foundation’s commitment to ongoing environmental and conservation programs in Rockcliffe Park. These include water testing at the Pond, tree planting to preserve our maturing tree canopy, maintenance of the sports field at Rockcliffe Park Public School and Jubilee Garden, and conservation initiatives including the data collection on Pond use so that efforts at both conservation and continued access to the Pond can be maintained.
Our sincere thanks to our diplomatic neighbours who have hosted dinners for this event.
Dining with the Ambassadors is an event for Rockcliffe residents.
