Testimonials
“Thank you for providing the terrific facility, tasty food, and warm and friendly atmosphere for our annual Christmas party. It was a thrill to think our small group could have a party of world-class caliber at a famous museum. I would urge anyone who wants to have a fun-filled evening with good food, wonderful surroundings, and friendly staff to book a ‘Night at the Museum’ to make your party complete!” — Cody Styling Company
“The catering staff was most helpful in suggesting a menu and providing the food that was cooked to perfection – the location was wonderful, the staff helpful, and the food spectacular! We had a fantastic buffet. Our members said it was one of the best meals they have ever had: the marinated beef tenderloin was cooked to perfection and the blue cheese butter was to die for! We would definitely recommend using the Center and its catering services for an event as the location, food, staff, and services equate to perfection.” — Winchester Arms Collectors Association
