In Today’s Spotlight
Today’s Spotlight Sponsored By:
The Conshohocken Winter Market returns December 12-14 at the plaza at Hotel West & Main with 25 shops, live holiday music, seasonal treats, and holiday cocktails. Don’t miss the Philly Grinch, who will bring his antics to the market on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. Be sure to come back this weekend, as there is an almost completely new set of vendors.
Upper Merion Area Dinner Club?
Before we dive into this weekend’s events and happenings, I MUST get your feedback on a dinner club concept being raved about in other local communities. It’s a meetup built around good food and making connections in the community, and I’ve already started building it for the Upper Merion Area.
It’s very simple:
You sign up.
Take a short personality quiz.
You get sat at a table (for dinner) with the 5 most compatible guests.
Guest from ALL tables then converge at a local establishment afterwards for an after dinner gathering.
All details are handled for you and revealed the morning of. You just show up!
Let me know what you think! |
