Group meals are among CHV’s most popular activiti es. We’ve been holding restaurant dinners and lunches almost since CHV began\, and last ye ar we added “What’s Your Story” bring-your-own din ners in members’ apartments. Both are great ways t o make new CHV friends and enjoy old ones — and bo th fill up almost as soon as they’re announced. And that’s the problem. We oft en hear from members who want to attend a group me al\, but all too often find that all spaces are ta ken when they try to register. They ask why ther e aren't more group meals. We’d like there to be more\, too. But to make that possible\, w e need more hosts. Until now\, most rest aurant meals have been hosted by CHV Board members . We want to expand that circle and invite any CHV member to host a restaurant meal or a “Wh at’s Your Story” get-together.
Host ing a restaurant meal is simple. Choose a restaura nt that can accommodate a small group and provide separate checks\, pick a date\, and make a reserva tion — usually for six to ten people. The Communications Team takes care of the announcement and sign-ups. You just arrive\, welcome the group\, and enjoy the meal.
Hosting a “What ’s Your Story” dinner is simple\, too — and it doe s NOT mean cooking! Guests bring their own dinners \, while the host provides drinks and dessert. You don’t need a big apartment or a separate dining r oom\; six or eight guests is plenty. Again\, the C ommunications Team takes care of the announcement and sign-ups.
So\, if you enjoy our small gr oup meals — or if you've had trouble getting into one that you wanted to join— why not host one yourself? We’d be delighted to help y ou get started\, and we'll be there to back you up through the process. If you have questions about this\, or if you'd like to volunteer\, please pre ss the green “Register” button. Someone will reac h out to you soon!
