Suggestions for Socials
We encourage each Impact Group to plan one social event per season (12 weeks) where everyone can connect in a new way. These socials can include children too if appropriate. We are always looking for fun things to do with our Impact Groups. Here are some ideas that you can add to.

GROUP MEALS
Progressive Dinner
Choose 4 member’s houses to visit. Each “house” will provide a different part of the dinner. Everyone carpools to each location for that portion of the dinner. You can play a game at each house as well.
Breakfast Bar
Meet for breakfast on the weekend and cook a big breakfast together. During good weather, this can be fun to serve in the backyard or around the pool.
Sushi Night
If one person has a special cooking skill…share it with the group. Combines fun, learning and eating all in to one event!
