Would you like to meet fellow members of FPC in a small group setting and share a meal together? If so, Dinner for 8 is for you. Dinner for 8 will be Saturday, April 5 from 6-8 pm at various members homes. Dinner will be provided.

As registration forms are received, the Fellowship Committee will put people together so that each group has, at most, eight adults, taking into account the location preference that you listed. Groups may be comprised of all couples, two couples and four singles, one couple and six singles, etc. It all depends on who signs up. The mystery of who you will be dining with is part of the excitement! 

Your dinner host, companions, and location will be revealed a week before the dinner. Questions or interested in hosting? Email Emily Korab.

For those uncomfortable with buying tickets so far ahead of time, know that you can get trip insurance for 15% of the ticket.
