Fundraiser Dinner — Fellowship Hall
168 at rounds of eight, with the serving line where the kitchen can reach it.
St. Cecilia's Parish Center · Fellowship Hall · 100′ × 64′, 18′ ceiling

Why it is laid out this way
- The buffet runs along the north wall beside the kitchen door, so nothing is restocked across a room full of seated guests.
- The 13′ grid keeps the serving counter in the south wall and both airwall pockets clear — the partition can still close after dinner.
- Rounds of eight rather than ten: at 3′ between chair backs this hall seats 168 without anyone reaching past a neighbour to get out.
