Chancellor's Dinner recap and photos

Updated: Jul 18, 2024



We were delighted to bring back a favorite Friends of Clermont tradition — the Chancellor's Dinner!


It was a beautiful June evening as guests gathered at some of the most stunning hidden gems in our region. Scrumptious multi-course dinners were graciously provided by the owners themselves, while everyone enjoyed catching up with old and new friends alike. Those who attended at Central House were treated to guest speaker and Germantown Historian Thomas Shannon, who shared insights about Clermont State Historic Site and its ties to the community.


The Chancellor's Dinner raises funds to support Friends of Clermont's low or no-cost community programs and initiatives. We are grateful to everyone who attended our fundraiser and to our hosts for creating such a memorable evening with their gracious hospitality.


Keep scrolling for some pictures from the fun evening. I don't know about you, but we're looking forward to next year...

Everything — from the stunning location, to the graciousness of our hosts, to the fine fare offered — was lovely.





Food, company, ambience. Certainly can’t get any better than that! A stellar evening.
