Brothers & Sisters Celebrate Another Holiday Dinner

Springfield, IL (December 14, 2024) While there has been much confusion over the years that this is a CORAL event, the Brothers & Sisters Dinner group is only affiliated with CORAL because most of its attendees are also CORAL members.  And the annual holiday dinner is the highlight of their year.

If you’re not familiar with Brothers & Sisters, this is a social group for members of the LGBTQ community and their allies, that goes out to dinner on Friday evenings to different locally owned restaurants in the area simply to enjoy a meal and the company of like-minded others.

Each year, in December, the Brothers & Sisters group gathers for a holiday dinner that includes a gift exchange amongst the attendees.  The fun ensues as gifts can be stolen along the way.
