SUMMARY:Mess Night at Museum
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for our quarterly Mess Night dinner series with guest speaker Joseph Yorio. Drawing on his experience as an Army Ranger\, Green Beret\, paramilitary contractor\, and global business executive\, Joseph M. Yorio reveals that fearlessness is not the absence of fear: it is the discipline to act despite it. From combat zones in Central America\, Africa\, and the Middle East to boardrooms and Washington\, D.C.\, he explores how decisive action\, learning from failure\, and relentless evolution overcome adversity and deliver results. This inspiring keynote challenges veterans and civilians to confront difficult problems\, lead without waiting for permission\, and build a legacy of courage\, purpose\, and action. \nEach Mess Night features a guest speaker\, topic\, dinner\, drinks\, and time to socialize before and after the talk. Registration will be required before the event. Join us as we transform this historic naval tradition into our own. Event suitable for all ages. \n$50 MEMBERS | $58 NON-MEMBERS \nPurchase tickets here. \nEvent sponsored by the Wisconsin Veterans Museum Foundation through the generous support of our 2026 Mess Night Series Sponsor Generac Power Systems.
