🥂 Spanish Guitar Brunch at The Ben – Spruzzo Rooftop! 🎸

Date: Saturday August 16, 2025
Time: 1:00PM
Location: Spruzzo Rooftop at The Ben, Downtown West Palm Beach
Where to Meet: At the big table near the entrance! (Send Amy a message if you can't find us.)

From wild adventures to unforgettable brunches, I’ve truly enjoyed every moment and every one of you. Thank you for supporting our events and making this group what it is.
This isn’t the end—it’s the next chapter! To celebrate, let’s return to where my adventure with you all really kicked off: The Ben’s incredible Spruzzo rooftop, a spot filled with memories from way back in August 2022. With live music and a Spanish guitar brunch, we’ll make new memories together!

Details:

• No RSVP limits: Everyone’s welcome—bring friends, old and new!
• As we get closer, I’ll check the RSVP list and try to reserve our favorite big table near the entrance.
• Enjoy live Spanish guitar, gorgeous rooftop views, and great food—let’s brunch in style!

Parking Tips:

• Banyan Garage: $5 on weekends, one block away (next to The Ben—not the expensive garage in front of Elizabetta’s).
• Hotel Valet: $20, not validated for diners—save your money and enjoy the easy walk from Banyan Garage!

If you haven’t made it out to a brunch, now’s your chance! Whether this is your first event or your tenth, I’d absolutely love to see you. Here’s to new adventures and great friends—brunch is just the beginning! Let me know if you’d like to set a date and time, or if you’d like a version for email, texts, or specific social platforms!

RSVP and come ready to celebrate—see you on the Spruzzo rooftop!

Cheers,
Amy
