February News

Greetings Incliners!

We had such a great time at our January Superbowl event! Thanks to everyone who attended and for your patience with finding a seat. 

There has been a great turnout for our dinners, we have been reaching (or almost reaching) the Chateau’s capacity nearly every month.  We want everyone to have a wonderful time so here are a few reminders: 

Deadline for Dinner Reservations

There is a firm deadline of Friday at NOON the week before the catered dinner at the Chateau (For February, that will be Friday the 13th).  We must give the Chateau the final number on that day.  We have seen quite a few people who believe that they have registered but we have no reservation in our system.  When you make a reservation, you will receive an email verification; if you do not receive that email or have other questions, please contact: info@incliners.org.  This is the only way to get assistance, thank you!

Seating Etiquette for Dinners

Please remember that seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, and many attendees bring place cards to reserve their spots.  Please do not arrive at the Chateau before 4:30pm to place name cards on the tables.  The decorating committee will not be finished and anything placed on the table before 4:30pm will be removed. 

Our doors open at 5:30 pm, and seats tend to fill quickly, so arriving early is the best way to secure your preferred spot. If you arrive after 6:00 pm, you may find limited availability, which can be frustrating.

To ensure everyone has a chance to enjoy the evening:

  • Limit seat reservations to six per table. This helps keep tables open and inviting for others.
  • If you have a group of eight or more, consider reserving seats at two adjacent tables. It’s a great way to enjoy time with your group while meeting new people.
  • Don’t have place cards? No problem! You can use a napkin, coat, or other personal item to mark your seat.

We pride ourselves on being a welcoming and inclusive community. By following these guidelines, we can make sure everyone feels comfortable, finds a seat, and connects with new friends. Need assistance? Our team is here to help—just ask!

Singles Group

We’re super excited to announce that our Incliners Singles Group is up and running!  The next social event will be on February 10 from 4pm to 6pm at Alibi.  If you are single and want to meet some other single people, this is for you!  We also have a singles table at our Chateau dinners just for you!
