Kiva Classic social events

    The Kiva Classic is more than squash. It's also a great time with many social events to which all entrants and their significant others/guests are invited.

Parties and receptions
​

    On Wednesday evening, Dec. 4, we're holding a welcome reception at the club. (Dress is casual.)
    Thursday evening, Dec. 5, offers a cocktail party with hors d’oeuvres at a Kiva Club member's home. (Dress is business casual.)
    On Friday night, Dec. 6, we'll have a buffet dinner at the club. (Casual dress.)
    On Saturday night, Dec. 7, we will have cocktails, appetizers and a sit-down dinner at the Gerald Peters Gallery. (Dress is business casual.)

     We will also have the usual breakfasts and lunches at the club during the tournament. 


Tamale cooking class

    On Friday afternoon, Dec. 6, at 2 p.m., gather around the Kiva's pool table for an informal class with cooks from Walter Burke's Catering kitchen. You'll learn how tamale masa is made and how to slow roast pork and red chile for the filling.
    You'll get hands-on experience folding and wrapping tamales which then will be steamed and served at Friday's reception.  


Santa Fe history and architecture tour
   On Saturday at 2 p.m., Walter Burke will take who ever shows up on a walking tour from the front door of the Kiva Club into the historic Acequia Madre Street neighborhood. 
    The focus will be on Santa Fe's early history up to the present as represented in the City's classic adobe architecture, with personal anecdotes.
     This is a easy walk to Acequia Madre, four blocks from the club, winding through hidden lanes, discussing homes whose historic design is protected by the Santa Fe Historic Design Review Board.
     Wear comfortable walking shoes for this informative one-hour, 1.5-mile walk.  No need to sign up ahead of time or drive anywhere.
