Once again we will gather monthly on the 3rd Saturday of the month. Freddie has graciously reserved one side of the patio for us. Brunch takes place from 11am to 1pm. When you arrive, simply ask to be directed to the AGLA delegation. AGLA Board members will be glad to introduce you to others. No reservation required. Just arrive when you can.

Freddie’s Saturday brunch is quite the deal and very delicious. All you can eat breakfast buffet, including made to order omelettes and Belgian waffles, with coffee, soda or juice for only $9.99. Not a breakfast food person, you can always order off the regular menu.

All are welcome to join us regardless of where your reside or whether or not you are an AGLA member. Bring a friend, enjoy the great food and drink, meet new people, and catch up with old friends you have not seen in a while.

In addition, as ongoing community service, if you can, please bring along travel-sized unused soaps, shampoos, lotions, etc. for A-SPAN (www.a-span.org), which provides life-sustaining services for street homeless. Or clean out your cupboard of unused nonperishable food items for AFAC, the community leader in providing and promoting dignified access to nutritious food for those in need. (http://www.afac.org/) . This event will serve as a convenient collection point.

Crystal City Metro is the closest Metro stop. When you arrive and exit the fare card reader, go up the first escalator and enter the glass doors on your left. Walk through the underground shops to 23rd St, turn right and cross Eads and walk about a block up. Freddie’s is on the right. Map. http://www.freddiesbeachbar.com/map_directions.htm
