Please join us on the evening of Saturday, April 5 for the return of Bigelow’s Ten Tables progressive dinner event!
Ten Tables is an ADULTS-ONLY evening, that you will not want to miss! This is not only a fun way to meet other families in the Bigelow community but also one of the largest school-wide fundraisers we have. Everyone will begin at the same location for appetizers at 6:30 p.m. Just before 8 p.m., you will be handed an envelope with the location of your dinner house. Dinners are small gatherings, ranging from 8 to 12 people. This is a great way to get to know other families that have kids in the same grades as yours.
Would you like to host a dinner? We have a number of wonderful hosts already signed up, but we could use a couple more. Host families provide guests with food and beverages, usually around 8-12 people. Some families choose to cook the meal, some choose catering/takeout, and some do a combination, so please don’t be afraid to volunteer even if you’re not into cooking. For anyone new to hosting and thinking about it, we are happy to answer any questions. Themes from past years have included: A Trip to Tuscany, Land, Sea, and Bubbles, Greeking Out, Burger & Co., French Countryside, The Bar at Capitol Chill, Margaritas and Margheritas. If you would like to host, please contact Kathy Shields at kburdetteshields@yahoo.com.
Would you like to host the appetizer party? We’re still looking for a host for the kick-off to the evening’s festivities. This portion of the night runs from 6:30 to 8 p.m., with a hard stop at 8 p.m. since all guests will be leaving for dinner. You will be tasked with appetizers and beverages for roughly 100 people. Please contact Kathy (kburdetteshields@yahoo.com) if you would like to host or (co-host!) the appetizer party.
Would you like to attend Ten Tables as a guest? Please sign up and let us know you’re coming. Please complete this Google form and let us know about the size of your group and any dietary restrictions you have.
