November 1, 2024, Guest Who is Coming to Dinner Event
What is Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?
Well, it's a fun evening where hosts don't know who's coming to dinner until you show up at their door! And guests don't know where they're going until a couple of days before when we send out the email with location and time details.
The element of surprise is part of the fun! It's a great way to foster new or better connections with other Rotarians while enjoying an evening together!
Special thank you to all the Nadine Larch for organizing this terrific event and to all the hosts (Sherry and Eric Mourant, Nadine Larch, Julianna and Maria Mutch and Mark Estey).
Enjoy the November 1, 2024, photos below.
