2024 Blog Dinner Tickets On Sale

3

I am pleased to announce that the 2024 ETC Blog Dinner is a go! Thanks to generous support from CSNTM it will also be much more affordable (hurray!). This year’s event will be Sunday night at 7:00pm at Casa Octavio in San Diego. It’s about a 15-minute walk from the convention center. 


Details

There doesn’t seem to be a NT text criticism session that night, but there is a Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible (S24-344) as well as a Papyrology and Early Christian Backgrounds (S24-236). Both meet 4:30–6:30pm. I may be at one of the Paul sessions (forgive me!), but anyone attending those other sessions can walk over together. The rest of us will just plan to meet at the restaurant. Now the details...

  • Cost: $35.00 (includes the appetizer, main course, non-alcoholic drinks, taxes and tip)
  • Time: 7:00pm–10:00pm on Sunday, November 24th
  • Place: Casa Octavio, 935 J Street San Diego, CA 92101
  • Emcee: Dr. Peter M. Head

Caveat

One BIG caveat: the space only allows for about 40 people comfortably, 50 uncomfortably. So I am capping the tickets at 45 people and I am not offering refunds after this Sunday because I can’t risk losing my personal money. Do not wait if you want to come! I cannot promise you a space if you don’t buy your ticket ahead of time—even if you are the emcee.

Update: I’m happy to report that the restaurant has sent word that they can now accommodate a group of 80 and CSNTM is willing to extend their generosity to match. So I have added more available tickets accordingly. The refund does still close 7 days before.

Thanks

Again, a huge thanks to the folks at CSNTM for making this event affordable. San Diego is pricey and, without their support, it would be twice the price.
