River Lake Inn is delighted to offer a new program designed to cure the most severe case of cabin fever this winter. We are calling it our Sunday Supper Club. The Sunday Supper Club will begin on Sunday, January 8, 2012 for ten consecutive Sundays until Sunday, March 11.
Each Sunday, we will offer a unique and informative half-hour program starting at 3:00 pm. Please see below for a complete listing of dates and weekly program topics.
Following each program, River Lake Inn will offer a special soup and sandwich feature sure to be perfect for a Sunday supper and to add one more layer of interest and enjoyment to your Sunday evening.
To participate in the Sunday Supper Club, one must have a Sunday Supper Club membership.
Membership is just $21 per person for the full ten-week program. Membership fee covers the programs. All meals, including soup and sandwich selections, are an additional expense.
We anticipate that our weekly soup and sandwich features will cost somewhere around $12.95 depending on varying food costs to prepare them.
Since we have limited seating capacity for our Sunday programs, there is a limit of 100 memberships available on a first-come-first serve basis.
Please join us for this exciting Sunday Supper Club and sign up today.
As a Supper Club member, we will send you reminders of the upcoming season in late fall and send weekly email reminders as we begin the season. If you have any questions, please be sure to let us know.
Join us this coming winter for these special programs!
