The
splendid surroundings of the historic State Capitol building, pictured above, were the setting
for two events in October to commemorate the Great Elizabethan whose story is so closely
linked to the founding of modern America.
‘A Raleigh good time’ is
what the organisers promised, with tickets at $25 per person.
A ticket gave people the chance of ‘meeting’ Sir Walter as well as
wine, appetizers and a special release beer aptly named True Britt, made by the
Raleigh-based Lonerider
Brewing Company.
The event, on Thursday 25 October from 7.00 to 9.00 pm was co-sponsored by the Friends of the City of
Raleigh Museum, the NC State Capitol Foundation, and the Triangle Chapter of the British
American Business Council.
