We have a great tradition here in Paradise Park and that is how we get together for Thanksgiving Dinner and Christmas Dinner.
First of all you buy tickets for "Part of the Dinner" That part of the dinner is the Turkey, the Dressing and the Gravy, which the park caters. When you buy your ticket you also look on a chart of all the tables and find some friends that have already signed up and choose which table of friends you want to sit with and put your name on that table.
Once you have your ticket and table decided on, you get together with the others at your table and decided on who is going to bring what, in a sort of Pot Luck for the rest of the dishes, sides and desserts that you and your friends want to have with the Turkey etc..
The other thing that I love about this is that everyone contributes to their individual table settings as well.
"I have some Christmas dishes I'll bring" and "I have a nice Christmas centerpiece I can contribute" is how it all comes together and the tables all end up looking so nice.
It all ends up looking so festive and we all have a great time socializing. It is a great way to have a festive get together with friends.
And a good time was had by all.
NEXT UP, NEW YEAR'S EVE
