Let's Meetup at "Olive Garden"

Finally, this will be an easy event to attend and hopefully the time and date will be good for everyone. Don't worry though if you can't make it as we plan to have regular events especially now that it looks like the weather may warm up.

So, for this first event, we plan on meeting at Olive Garden here in Rapid City. I've talked to the kind people at Olive Garden and they indicated that this time as indicated above would be an excellent time to come. Kathy and I love going to Olive Garden as it's a nice atmosphere, the food is good and the cost is reasonable
for us. We usually have minestrone soup, salad (lemon or olive oil & vinegar dressing), breadsticks with no cheese. A complete vegan meal.

Yes, Olive Garden breadsticks are vegan. They are made without eggs, dairy, or any animal-derived ingredients. The garlic topping is made from vegan margarine, not butter, and the breadsticks themselves contain no animal products. You can enjoy them unlimited with your meal, no modifications needed.

For Kathy and I to eat there, it usually costs about $21 and we like to add at least a $5 tip in cash for our server. This is just what we do but you can decide for yourself what you would like, so plan accordingly. We will be able to be seated close together so we can get acquainted.

Just indicate where or not you are coming and if you are bringing anyone with you. We do not charge for this event, but it's up to you to pay for your own order. (Don't forget to include a tip for your server)

We will be listed as "Stan & Kathy) when you approach the host or hostess inside the Olive Garden Restaurant. We look forward to meeting on Sunday after noon, March 22, 2026 at 2:00 PM. If you have questions, please feel free to call Stan's cell 865-250-4214.
