Good Morning, Upper Merion AreašŸ‘‹

I hope this issue of the Spotlight finds you well recovered from the holiday season and back into the swing of things. Personally, I love routines, so I enjoy getting back on a regular schedule.

If football is your thing, there is no need to read any further. I know exactly what youā€™ll be doing for the next four days šŸ˜„. If not, then I hope youā€™re able to find a few things that interest you.

Go Hoosiers, and Go Birds šŸˆ

P.S. Dinner club is in two weeks. Are you registered yet?

In Todayā€™s Spotlight

Donā€™t Miss The Upper Merion Areaā€™s First Dinner Club!!

Do you enjoy:

  • āœ… Going out to dinner?

  • āœ… Meeting new locals?

  • āœ… Small surprises?

If so, Iā€™d love for you to join us on Wednesday, January 21st at 7 p.m. for our first dinner club, sponsored by The Local Table.
To register, visit their website, answer a handful of questions, then show up on the 21st ready to meet new folks, swap local stories, and find out what makes our area so vibrant.
The smart matching algorithm will seat you with 5 other guests youā€™re most likely to ā€œclickā€ with, as well as pick the best spot in the Upper Merion Area to have dinner. It also picks the (optional) after dinner location for all tables to meet up and mingle. The surprise is, the location isnā€™t disclosed until the morning of šŸ¤­.
Check out the FAQ section, or feel free to send me a message with any questions. If you decide to join us, I have a special PROMO code which will save you 40% off your registration fee. All parties will be responsible for their own food and drink.

I hope to see you there!
