Dining Around the World in Naples (D.A.W.N.) is a UUCGN program that runs from May through October. Each month we get together with fellow members at a different ethnic restaurant for dinner. It’s a great opportunity to meet people whom you don’t know as well and build new friendships. We can support many of these restaurants that lose business in the warmer months while giving everyone a chance to try new places.
Dinners are scheduled on the second Wednesday of each month: June 10th, July 8th, Aug 12th, Sept 9th and Oct 14th. We will gather at 5:30 PM and we ask that you wear your UUCGN name tags. This year, our committee has expanded to hosts for all six dinners. Our wonderful Congregational Administrator, Anna, will continue to accept your reservations for attendance (office@uunaples.org) and share that list with that month’s host. Should your plans change, please let both your host and Anna know so we can have a better count at the restaurant. Watch for each month's announcement, review the restaurant website for their menu, and sign up right away as seating may be limited based on a restaurant’s ability to accommodate a large group. Individual dinner checks will be provided. We look forward to having you join us for another marvelous trip as we “Dine Around the World in Naples”.

Circle Dinners - Recessed for the Summer!
Circle Dinners are social gatherings of small groups (usually 6-7, maybe 9-10 depending on available seating) who spend an evening at a members’ home sharing a meal – sort of pot-luck style. These dinners are a great way to meet new folks in a comfortable setting, or just get together with old friends for a nice evening. They are held on the third Friday each month, and you can come to one – or all of them! Contact Cynthia Scher at cscher0903@gmail.com
Bereavement Group
Please email office@uunaples.org if interested in meeting together with Joan Leary, Licensed Therapist in a supportive, confidential setting to discuss loss. Due to the sensitive nature of this group, registration is required.
