Hi Everyone,

Our next lunch meeting will be Sunday 12/14 at 11:00am at Capital Crave. Please note the new time for this meeting due to the NFL football season. Capital Crave gets a lot of people Sunday afternoons during football season. So, I am going to change the meeting time for now to 11:00am and end by 1:00pm.

Capital Crave is located on Rt. 40 (Golden Mile) next to the VFW on Rt. 40. The reservation is under the name Frederick Travel Group.
