It’s that time of year again! Please join us on Thursday, February 29th from 6-8 PM as we continue the great Yale tradition of bringing cheer to the month of February with Feb Club Hartford, where we will be joined by a special guest (detail below)! We will again meet at Tavern In The Square in Corbin’s Corner (1393 New Britain Avenue, West Hartford), where we also hosted this fall’s Autumn Gathering and some of our recent Yale football game watch parties.
Our Club will provide a traditional Mory’s Cup beverage (which may include gold, velvet, or a surprise color), along with hors d’oeuvres and starter food. Both our Mory’s Cups and the starter food are complimentary for all guests - the event is free to attend! Additional drinks and food will be available for purchase.
A very special guest is joining The Yale Club of Hartford for Feb Club tonight: Sichan Siv, former United States Ambassador to the United Nations Economic and Social Council, will join our Feb Club event! Ambassador Siv was one of the first Club of Hartford Zoom speakers in 2022, and looks forward to visiting our group in-person, an opportunity not possible previously. Ambassador Siv endured a harrowing growing up in Cambodia (read more here) before escaping and arriving into Tweed New Haven Airport with all his worldly possessions: his mother’s scarf, an empty rice bag, and two dollars. He has fond memories of Connecticut, where he began by picking apples in Wallingford and slinging ice cream in Middletown.
Please join us in welcoming, conversing and communing with Ambassador Siv in Leap Year Feb Club! And we look forward to seeing you tonight for Feb Club!
