Providing you "food for thought" or, more appropriately, "thoughts of food," we've scheduled our 2020 Progressive Dinner and want to share the date with you.  Our Progressive Dinner is an annual treat and a members-only event that is so popular that we need to create a waiting list of interested participants as the event draws closer.  Mark your calendar today for the date in July, then wait to receive your personal invitation in mid-June.  An early RSVP, after receiving your invitation, is a good plan.
