The President of the Army Mountaineering Association, Brigadier Ivan Hooper, has the great pleasure of inviting you to the Presi- dent’s Dinner, to be held on Friday 9 November 2012, at The Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.
The President’s Dinner is held to mark the significant expeditions and achievements that have been made throughout the year and to thank those who have supported and assisted the adventurous training that has been undertaken by the association members. It also provides an opportunity to offer inspiration to the future expe- dition leaders and members present, through the invitation of a number of key guests, both military and civilian, from both within the climbing and mountaineering community and those who sup- port it.
The evening will commence at 1930 hours in the Medal’s Bar, New College, at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, with dinner served at 2000 hours. Dress for the dinner will be black tie. Tick- ets will cost £35, and requests should be made on the enclosed proforma. Various options for accommodation are available in the local area within both Messes and local barracks and this should
be booked on an individual basis. Contact details for these options can be provided on request.
If you have any questions regarding the event, please do not hesi- tate to contact either the Membership Secretary, or the under- signed.
We do hope you can join us for the evening.
