You are cordially invited to celebrate the holidays at a fun party at Freddie's Beach Bar & Restaurant on Tuesday, December 13th at 6 p.m. Freddie is going all out. There will be plenty of good cheer, with a cash bar and raffle prizes.
At the event we will present the 201 Equality Awards
There is no cover charge; this is a fun social. Additionally as has become tradition we will have fabulous raffle prizes. You are encouraged to buy raffle tickets for the good cause, so bring cash. You get 10 tickets for $10.
Regardless of where you live, please feel free to invite all your friends, as the more the merrier!
In addition to a dessert table, it is Taco Tuesday. If you plan to dine, please call ahead and make a reservation in your name at (703) 685-0555. The full menu is at http://freddiesbeachbar.com/menu.htm
Also, as has become tradition, AGLA will be collecting boxes of cereal and nonperishable foods at the event to donate to (http://www.afac.org). This time of year AFAC many times sees an increase in those needing food assistance; this is another great way that AGLA helps our community.
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
Aside from a fabulous party this event also provides members (and potential members – so bring your friends your are not members yet) an opportunity to provide direct input to the board about the direction and activities of AGLA. As an annual meeting, members get to elect the board for the upcoming year. Nominations will be accepted from the floor.
AGLA is a strong beacon for equality. It's an inclusive nonpartisan 501(c)(3) nonprofit open to all lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning (LGBTQ) people and straight allies. It provides social activities, builds relationships with elected officials, and works with civic groups on community service.
