The event features a delicious lunch and “Luck of the Irish” Bingo. Make sure you wear green to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!
Doors will open at 10:30 a.m. Cost for the luncheon and program is $35 for members and $40 for guests. All reservations must be received by March 7, 2026. For further information about the luncheon and membership, please go to the NNSJ website at https://newcomersofnorthstjohns.org. As always, raffles for gift baskets, fun 50/50 drawing and table centerpieces spice up our NNSJ luncheons.
Entrée choices include: Baked Salmon with Creamy Lobster Dill Sauce served over Lobster Ravioli and Mixed Vegetables; Chicken Tuscany with mushrooms and spinach topped with a White Wine Sauce and served over linguini; or classic Eggplant Parmesan served with pasta. All entrées are served with a Caesar Salad accompanied with Fresh Bread and an Olive Oil Dipping Sauce.
Beverages include water and iced tea. Dessert is Limoncello cake. A cash bar is also available.
“Our entertainment will be ‘Luck of the Irish Bingo.’ With fun prizes, this promises to be a wonderful luncheon thanks to our talented co-vice president team of Dawn Coston and Suzy Catania who plan our monthly luncheon entertainment,” said Michele Oliver, co-president. “Please remember to wear green as everyone is (at least a little bit) Irish on St. Pat’s Day!”
“NNSJ offers a variety of activities for our members to connect and have fun including wine socials, golf, Mah Jongg, Bingo, Bunco, card games and special day trips,” added Co-President Charlene Lim. “We continue to welcome new members from St. Johns, Duval and the surrounding areas, so we encourage those interested to visit our website and learn more about Newcomers of North St. Johns.”
