Welcome to Dinners for Six!  This is an activity for New Villagers that gives an opportunity for fun gatherings of good food, new friends, and conversations.  Tellico Village is a very special place with a great variety of individuals living here – some as singles, some as couples, and some waiting for their spouses to join them. 

For those new to this dining experience, here is a brief explanation.  Each month, groups of 5 or 6 will meet in the home of a host who provides the entree, vegetable (if desired) and all beverages.  The guests will either provide appetizers & salad OR bread & dessert.  The group will be different individuals each month and you will provide a different part of the meal each time.  A lot of good food is enjoyed at these gatherings so please consider sharing the recipe for the dish that you provide at the dinner. 

Please note that this is a social group and not a forum for personal, religious or political viewpoints. 

There are links to the rotation schedule and an alphabetical list of participants and substitutes for this session at the top of this page.   The hosts’ names are shown in bold type in the left-hand column.  The host is responsible for contacting the guests by the first of the month and setting a mutually convenient date.  Try to offer several possible dates.  You may be as creative as you wish with this – any day of the week, and any type of dining experience (Sunday brunch, patio/deck dinners & pontoon boat picnics are some variations that have been successful). As host, it is desirable to inform your guests of your choice of entrée, so that they may provide a compatible dish to complement the meal.  A phone confirmation, by the host in the week before the dinner, is recommended.  If any emergency arises and you are unable to host during your month, plan to switch to a date that you can host.  Try to host in your assigned month, but if necessary, go into another month.  It is possible that the hosts may have out-of-town guests, so some dinners might actually have more than 6 individuals enjoying the meal. 

If your host has not contacted you by the beginning of the month, feel free to contact them. 

If a guest cannot attend on any of the suggested dates, the host is encouraged to contact a substitute from the attached list.  As additional New Villagers express an interest in Dinners for Six, their names will be kept on a list until the next three-month rotation begins. Call Lynn or Rick at 408-0326 for these additions.  Remember these new arrivals are very eager to participate and will be happy to be included.  If a substitute cannot be found from any of these sources, please call a friend, neighbor or another Villager to fill in. 

Every effort has been made to ensure that you are scheduled with different couples for each rotation, however, in some cases, this may not be possible.   If you have further questions or concerns, please contact one of the names below.  Your feedback is always appreciated.  

Remember, you must sign up for each three-month rotation if you wish to participate.
