Events & RSVPs
Guidelines
The WRSSAR holds regular events throughout the year. These events are open to members, their families, friends and the community at large. We endeavor to make these events both fun and educational. We look forward to seeing you there. If you have ideas for future events, please do send them to us: wrssar.communications@gmail.com
- RSVPs are required for all events. We accept online payments at the time of your reservation or you can pay at the door (cash, check or credit card). While we would prefer non-members to pay in advance, that is not a requirement.
- Cancellations must be made in writing or by phone, at least, 72 hours ahead of time.
Online RSVP Service
You can RSVP (no payment required) or Pre-Pay for any event by clicking the appropriate box below. Feel free to contact us with questions.
Please note: Due to venue policies, if you RSVP and do not pre-pay, but then fail to attend the event, we will need you to reimburse us the full cost of your ticket since the venue will charge us for your meal whether you attend or not.
Event Calendar
The WRSSAR has be blessed with an excellent record of student accomplishment over the decades. Our local High School Oration Winner has won locally, at the State and at National SAR TWICE in the past decade. THis year, due to covid, our oration will be held virtually. At this time, we do not know if members will be able to view the contest or when we can show the speeches – due to the need for privacy since our winner must be anonymous at the State and National events.
We are also judging our Elementary School poster contest and Middle School brochure contests at the same time. These items will be collected at the start of April.
Please contact us with any questions.
The third bd mtg of the year will definitely be virtual via zoom but if 4 members wish to attend in-person, we will also meet at the Union Club at noon. If you wish to attend in person, please let us know ASAP.
The annual NATIONAL SAR Congress will be held in Seattle this year. Please check back for more details as we get closer to the event.
This event is sponsored annually by the OHSSAR and local WRSSAR members are encouraged to attend to show our support for Ohio’s only Revolutionary War memorial.
More details will be posted as we get closer to the event.
Our 4th BD MTG of 2021 will definitely meet via zoom but if at least 4 members wish to attend in-person, we will also meet at the Union Club. Please let us know ASAP if you wish to attend in person
We have not yet picked a date for our annual Night Out with the CLE Indians. We expect to obtain 15 tickets for an evening game in August, 2021. We will update this page as soon as the tickets have been purchased.
Join us for our annual Night Our with the Cleveland Indians versus Boston Red Sox at Progressive Field.
We have reserved 16 CLUB SEATS around the 1st base area – rows R and S – which means a bit higher up in the club area which also means fewer steps to go down and up every time you want drinks or food.
Club seats include all you can eat FOOD and free non-alcoholic drinks. The schedule has not been finalized but they expect Friday night to also be a Fireworks night.
We will start selling tickets in February 2021 online. We are only collecting exactly what the Indians are charging per ticket which is $106. (parking not included). Again, this is $106 per ticket but includes club seating, club amenities and all you can eat food/drink.
We only have 16 tickets and they will be sold on a 1st come/1st served basis. Please contact us with questions ASAP. The Indians do not expect the game to be cancelled but there may be a mask requirement. They will not be requiring a vaccination to attend but the Board of the SAR has informally suggested that all SAR members wishing to attend SAR events get vaccinated for their own safety.
Again, contact us with questions or buy your tickets on our website in the events area as soon as they are available – sometime in February.
5th WRSSAR BD MTG – it will definitely be held via zoom BUT if 4 members with to attend in-person, we will also meet at the Union Club. Please let us know ASAP if you wish to attend in-person
In hopes that vaccines will be thoroughly available by this date, we plan on hosting our premier luncheon for members, guests and friends at the Shaker Heights Country Club in honor of Veterans Day.
More details will be posted as we get closer to the event. The cost will be $35 – usual – for petit filet of beef, vegetable, starch, salad, bread, butter, and cherry pie a la mode. Valet parking (free) is available. WE will be in the grand ballroom with an attempt to socially distance as much as is possible for this type of event.
This meeting will be virtual via zoom BUT if 4 or more members wish to attend in-person, we will also hold the meeting live in-person at the Union Club. Please let us know ASAP if you wish to attend in-person.
