Please note this is a partner organization - not an Explorers Club event.
The Harvard Travellers Club meeting on Monday, Nov. 10 to hear Halley Ramos, Explorers Club member, an EC’50 class of 2023, talk about using new technology to recreate historic sites through the world (examples are Jordan and Syria). I've asked her to meld travel into her talk, as we're a travel-focused organization, but I think the science will be fascinating.
This takes place at:
6:00 p.m. -- social time
6:45 p.m. -- dinner
8:00 p.m. -- presentation (ending around 9 p.m.)
Club meetings are generally held in the Massachusetts Room of the Harvard Club on Commonwealth Avenue. Cocktails (cash bar) begin at 6:00 PM, dinner ($86, Cash or checks only, payable that evening.) at 6:45, and the presentation commences at 8:00. Club meetings are attended by members and their guests. The dress code for our meetings is business casual.
Please let me know by noon, Wednesday, Nov. 5 if you can come (and of any allergies or dietary restrictions).
The Harvard Travellers Club (HTC) is an organization that has provided a venue for adventurous travelers to gather and socialize since 1902. An affiliation with Harvard University is not required for membership.
The Club meets 8 times each year, and held its 900th meeting since inception in November 2022. Our speakers include many legendary -- as well as up-and-coming -- explorers, scientists, mountaineers, and adventurers.
Listen to Nils Bonde-Henriksen, HTC member, as he describes the Club's history, members of note, and the purpose of the Club on this podcast. He is interviewed by Jonathan Reynolds of the Explorers Club.
