The 5th Annual Dining in the Dark Hosted by Lighthouse for the Visually Impaired and Blind was held on Saturday, February 9, 2019 from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., at Silverthorn Country Club, 4550 Golf Club Ln, Spring Hill, FL 34609. Photos provided by J David Wright.

Dining in the Dark provides a simulation in vision impairment which allows your sense of taste, smell, and touch to take over; you savor sensuous tastes, smells and textures, while challenging your palate to tease out the mysteries of the menu. Proceeds from Dining in the Dark benefit the Lighthouse for the Visually Impaired and Blind, a 501(c)3 nonprofit serving people who are visually impaired and blind in Pasco, Hernando and Citrus counties.
