Table Captains are responsible for inviting women in the community to join them for this special event. By filling a table of up to 10 guests, Table Captains play an instrumental role in ensuring a warm and welcoming experience for newcomers, new-ish community members and longtime supporters alike. Table Captains are also asked share important event details with their guests, build camaraderie among their table and encourage philanthropic support.

When registering, if you don’t have specific seating requests, please feel free to leave the Table Captain space blank or provide any details about yourself to help us seat you at the best table possible, such as any synagogue or school affiliations, hometown, etc.
