The Senior Adult Council presents an opportunity to go to Dollywood Sunday, November 17-Tuesday, November 19. We will leave the church after worship on the 17th, and drive to Pigeon Forge, Tenn. Upon arrival, we will enjoy a delicious dinner and exciting show at the Pirates Voyage before checking in for the next two nights at the Pigeon Forge Springhill Suites. On Monday, we will spend the day at Dollywood once it’s decorated for its Smoky Mountain Christmas season. There, we will enjoy the food, shows, and beautiful atmosphere of this fun theme park, and then head home after breakfast on Tuesday morning.
Contact Courtney Willis for more details and be sure to sign up by October 13 by clicking the link below! This trip is open to folks of all ages, but space is limited, so sign up soon!
The Senior Adult Council is sponsoring “Dinner” for Eight!
What is Dinner for 8?
People of all ages can sign up to host their group once a month for four months (January through April). Sign-up sheets will be on the tables Wednesday nights and in the Atrium at the reception desk, or you can sign up below.
Who can sign up?
Any adult, any age, singles or couples who have a connection with FBC.
Why?
This is your opportunity to have fun and get to know one another on a more personal level!
What do the groups do?
Each group can be as creative as they want. For example, part of the group may have children and don’t want to hire a sitter – consider hosting a picnic that all may enjoy.
Host at your home; go out for breakfast, lunch or dinner; have dessert at Delicious or ice cream at Yum Yum; or find a quiet table on Wednesday night for your group of 8.
This is a rewarding intergenerational opportunity that allows participants who may not otherwise have the chance to get to know each other.
