SATURDAY DINNER OPTIONS

This year at Cyclon we are going to try something new to take advantage of our unique location in downtown Ottawa.  Instead of a barbeque on Saturday, we will be hosting smaller group dinners in downtown Ottawa or the lively Byward Market.  Both are within walking distance of the University.

We have nine events scheduled for Saturday night, and you are invited to get your friends (new or old) together to join a fun dinner event.  Each event will accommodate 10 - 20 or possibly up to 30 people and descriptions are listed here. There will be individual billing at each event, so your cost will be determined by your dinner selection.

Please register for the event you would like to attend, so we can make advanced reservations on this busy weekend in Ottawa. In the case of Paul and Brenda's Razam Experience, reservations and payment must be made in advance, as we are booking an entire restaurant.

There will be a fireworks display from 9:15 pm to 9:45 pm in Hull and visible from the Parliament Hill area, so our Dinner Hosts have planned their events so that we can all meet up for the fireworks and have a big TBN gathering after dinner near Parliament Hill.  (Exact location TBD)
