ASSOCIATION OF ROMANIAN ENGINEERS IN CANADA (AREC)Toronto, Ontario
Cordially invites you to the AREC Gala Dinner 2024
On Saturday, November 9, 2024, starting at 6:00 PM
Elegant and modern venue, festive lights and professional sound, entertainment with Grigore Zanfir and with special appearance by Keff BAND, Deluxe Open Bar included, and an outstanding menu will be our recipe for an unforgettable night at: Venu Event Space ( previously known as Riviere Banquet Hall, 2800 Hwy 7 Vaughan ON, L4K 1W8 (https://venueventspace.com/)
AREC Executive members and collaborators work very hard to make the Gala one of the most elegant events of the year, and while prices at all venues went up considerably, we try the make the Gala as affordable as possible, by discounting it considerably for the AREC members, for students and graduates with the help of our gracious sponsors.
We remind you that we are a non-profit association. Therefore, we decided that this year the whole AREC membership for 2025 will go towards a discount at the AREC Gala.
General Admission and Membership:
A full price ticket this year is $170/person, but for the same price everyone participating at the Gala can also become a member (regardless of if they are engineers or other professionals), by paying $50 for the membership in 2025 and only $120 for the ticket - still $170 in total.
Yes, the whole membership that you pay will be used this year to sponsor your ticket at the Gala or if you prefer to see it in a different way, your membership for 2025 is free if you participate at the Gala. AREC can provide you with a $50 membership fee receipt which you can deduct as membership in a professional organization on your tax return.
Here is what the AREC membership offers you in addition to the Gala Ticket discount:
- you will be part of a respected professional association committed to supporting you in your personal and career development through networking and tutoring
- you will be able to participate for free in all seminars and other events organized by AREC in 2025 including the picnic
- you will be able to apply for a discounted insurance from Economical through INSUREU Brokers Inc. and use further group discounts negotiated by AREC for members in 2025
At this year's Gala we will celebrate the University and College New Graduates from our big Romanian AREC family, we will hand out scholarships, and we will announce the student grants for 2025. We will also celebrate lifetime achievements.
Students and New Graduates:
Tickets for a fulltime student or new graduate who is participating with family that is an AREC member, will be discounted with the help from our sponsors to $75. The number of discounted tickets is limited to 30 attendees.
