Each month the 4th St Diner has a special day set aside to celebrate birthdays for that month.  It is always scheduled for the second Tuesday of each month.  Anyone having a birthday for that particular month is encouraged to make a reservation for themselves and any guests they would like to celebrate with.  The names of all birthday celebrants who have made a reservation for the Birthday Table are entered into the door prize drawing.  We currently have two door prizes scheduled for each month.  The first is $5 in Vinton Unlimited Value Dollars generously donated by Vinton Unlimited.  The second is a gift certificate for a free 4th Street Diner meal.  Reservations for the Birthday Dinner table can be made by calling 472-4761.  Reservations need to be made by 10:00 AM on the day of the celebration.
