- Thomas Jefferson Reminisces, Annual Throwback Dinner

Mr. Jefferson Greets Casper Citizens!

Mr. Thomas Jefferson of Monticello will speak to and converse with  visitors from the far western territory on the occasion of this coming  anniversary of the approval of the Declaration of Independence. The  western travelers are welcome to gather at 6:00 PM at Swann’s  Tavern in Charlottesville [Country Club – Casper, WY] on June 13th,  1821 [2026] 

Consideration of this document and the events that led to its adoption  should be of interest to all concerned citizens and their families. 

Mr. Jefferson, who after eight years, retired from his elected office as  Chief Executive of these United States to return to his native home in  Albemarle County, Virginia, served as the primary draughtsman of  our Declaration. His recollections and comments about the times  and events that led to this founding document should rekindle the  patriotic zeal demonstrated by Mr. Jefferson and his fellow patriots  during much more onerous times than those we face today.
