Dining Out
Each month Atlanta Prime Timers schedules coffee hour events, brunches, potlucks and luncheons (one intown and one outside the beltway serving the northern suburbs). We try to pair a group meal with every event. A group meal, either before or after an event, represents time deliberately set aside for us to get to know each other better, catch up on news, and enjoy each other's company. Throughout our event calendar, you'll see meals paired with theatre outings, symphony outings, garden tours, and any number of other events. Prime Timers enjoy their food!
