I need ideas for our church senior citizen banquet. Every year we have a themed banquet to honor the seniors in our church and all they do. We have the young adults and teens serve and seat them.
We serve an appetizer, a main course, and a dessert. Then we have some type of entertainment. We have a game, skit, or other fun to go along with the theme. We've done a formal dinner (black and white), Hawaiian and others. Does anyone have any ideas for a theme?
Our seniors are worth their weight in gold. Treasure boxes w/gold and jewels, hershey's treasure candies. Do table in everything gold and their golden years.
we did one at our church as "old Bums" everyone dressed up in patched up clothes, some men had a stick over their shoulder with a handkerchief bag hanging on it. food was served on alum. pie plates, with empty pork and bean cans for glasses. Beverly Hill billies movie was shown. best dressed bum girl got a prize ring with a real carrot for a 100 karat diamond ring. best dressed bum guy prize was and exercise machine, a hoola hoop. much fun was had by all.

Sue, How about one of the wonderful old movies? You could even show all or parts before or after the banquet. (02/03/2006)

Our church just did our Adult Valentine's Banquet
with a Hee Haw theme. It was hilarious and everyone
says it was the best yet. (02/20/2006)

RE: Senior Citizen Banquet
Our church hosts a Senior Citizen Banquet every year prior to Christmas. Two years ago we used the theme, The Golden Years, and we used round, cream tablecloths accented with gold centerpieces (from Party Perfect, Clinton, NC). Instead of using confetti on the tables we used gold, chocolate nugget candy. We provided a speaker, senior citizen plaques and certificates, gift certificates, etc. We also put together a slide show of the honorees which was played during dinner, which was catered. Each year we draw names to determine the Senior King & Queen. We climax by taking them to "Meadow Lights" in Newton Grove to see the Christmas Lights. (12/13/2007)
