Club Outing to Ford's Garage for Brunch
Meet up at Ford’s Garage – Sarasota by 10:15 AM so we can park the cars together, ideally up front. The restaurant opens for Sunday brunch at 10:30. Fingers crossed on the temperature. We’ll have the tables reserved which are grouped outside. The thinking is to take advantage of the nice Florida weather and it should be easier for us to talk amongst ourselves out there.
So for now I’m trying to get an approximate headcount for the reservation. Let me know if you and anyone else would likely come to this event.
I’d like to hear back by Wednesday 12/27.
