Nervous About Dinner With Ceo, Coo And Other Employer Dignitaries?

I have been selected to attend process improvement classes with for the next year at my job. I was hand picked by the VP of HR which I am on a couple committees with. After the first night of class, there will be a dinner. At a restaurant. I am nervous about going. Beside being in these classes with managers, and directors, the CEO and corporate officials will be there. I truly feel like I am not ready for the dinner. I have enough to deal with going to class with the managers and directors, but to sit there socially with the group. A couple of people I asked that are in the classes stated that they were not going to be able to attend. I told a couople of people I have an appointment that evening but I may be able to rearrange the time. The dinner is right after a day long class. 8:a.m. to 4:30 p.m. I really feel like passing this up.

10 Secret Dinner Party Missions?

Suggestions please!
We are having a Christmas Dinner Party – a bit of a swanky event. The CEO, Human Resources reps, Board of Directors will all be inattendance. There are 10 attendees however that will be receiving secret missions, in an bid to watch them humiliate themselves.
The missions will be handed to them in envelopes at the begining of the evening and they will have to successfully achieve their missions throughout the night.
For example one mission might be:
Throughout the evening you must make a pass at each Human Resources representative, and they must know you are making a pass at them (male AND female).
The Board of Directors are quite easy-going and will have a laugh over these missions so, as long as it’s not physically abusive or harmful – your suggestions are welcome!
Thanks!
