What is Dining for Dollar$? (D4$)
If you are new to First Church you may be unfamiliar with Dining for Dollar$ (D4$). Begun in 2005, Dining for Dollar$ quickly became our most popular collection of social events given by many different hosts throughout the year. Our hosts – church members and friends just like you - offer fun, social events such as dinners, luncheons, tours, adventures, services, and workshops. This year (2022 - 2023) we will bid on the offerings in an online auction throughout the month of June. Dining for Dollar$ is built on the concept of members creating and hosting fellow church members and their families & friends for dinners, teas and picnics, museum tours with lunch, pool parties, brunches & barbecues, cooking classes, and other events. In the past, we've raised as much as $60,000 towards the church's operating budget. Above all else, D4$ events are the talk of the church throughout the year. There are many events that are hosted by our church members and friends that allow us to be together in a myriad of ways. Especially following the last couple of years of the pandemic, we are anxious to see each in smaller groups in person, safely, and you just can't beat an outdoor patio dinner with church friends, a hike in Mission Trails followed by a picnic offered by your hosts, a beach bonfire, lawn bowling at Balboa Park, and many, many fun adventures which will offered from July 2022 through May 2023.

We ask that you get those creative juices flowing! We realize this year is very different. Please plan those safe events. We recognize some people will not be able to participate in D4$ because they have different risk factors at this time. That's why we encourage your creativity for maximum participation. Hosts can name their safety protocols and ask their attendees to follow their guidelines.
Let's build back our community engagement with each other! Drew Massicot and Therese Belanger have already come up with a few exciting events to offer! Don't miss out - please join us as a D4$ Host!
Please watch this page for updates coming very soon. Events may be submitted until May 22, 2022, then bidding will begin on June 1, 2022 and continue through June 30, 2022. Event submission and bidding will happen online AND on Sundays on the Hillcrest patio after worship services.
