Monthly Dinner Party Format

There will be a Counterpoint Dinner Party every 3rd Tuesday of the month at 6:30 PM.

• They will be held at Mona's house (contact Sandi or Mona for information).
• We will start discussions at 6:30 and eat dinner at 7:00pm.
• Chicken, rice (or potato), salad and wine will be provided.  Guests are welcome to bring a dish to pass (optional).
• Guests are welcome to share ideas about a charity or service organization.  It may be something you have been involved in in the past, or something you are interested in knowing more about.  No need to prepare anything formal.  If have material such as photos, flyers, T-shirts, gift items, DVDs or CDs, you are welcome to bring them to show.  If not, simply print out the home page of the website, or just talk about it from what you know.  A laptop will be available if you would like to show us something on the web.
• An RSVP helps us make sure there is enough food for everyone but it is not required.
• Feel free to bring a friend if you have someone you think would be interested.

In addition to the monthly Dinners, people will share about other events and activities that you may want to participate in (but you will not be required to). 
We will not collect dues.
