There soldiers of the Union Army stand at attention to escort guests into the house. Inside costumed wait staff see to every need as period entertainment echoes through the elegant presidential home. 
<BR>
<BR>The menu for the evening&#39;s repast is taken straight from State Dinners hosted by President and Mrs. Hayes during their 1877-1881 residence in the White House. Seating is limited to 24 guests per night. ]]></description>
