Nova Scotia Kitchen Party
As the sun dips below the sails bobbing in the harbour, the clubhouse will come alive with the kind of warmth you can’t bottle. The kitchen bar glowing as Werner Hofstätter, our volunteer bartender, serves up a glass of whiskey. Someone begins plucking a ukulele, the nearby fiddle finds its voice, and the guitar player chimes in with a grin. Before you know it, the clubhouse is swaying with voices filled with good ol’ east coast merriment.
Join us for a tied-and-true Nova Scotia Kitchen Party! Bring your instruments, your singing voice, or enjoy the music from the sidelines. It’s sure to be a foot-stomping Nova Scotian night!

Members’ Summit
Let it be known across the waters and along the shore that upon the twenty-fourth day of September, in the year of our Lord two thousand and twenty-five, the final Member’s Summit of the season shall be convened.
This gathering, though shortened in its span, shall bring forth a brief account of the state of the Realm, followed by a great Town-Hall wherein voices may be raised and matters of import discussed.
The Royal Bar shall be open, and victuals in the form of gratis snacks shall be laid before those in attendance. This convocation is reserved for members of the Realm alone (in common tongue, this event is strictly for members only).
Make haste to mark thy calendars, for this be the final such council before the season’s close!
