In a program initiated by our Branch President, Charlie Baldwin, local restaurants are providing donations of dinner meal gift certificates to encourage attendance at Branch General Membership meetings.

We appreciate the support of these participating restaurants, so when you are dining out, patronize them. And if you go to one of them with a free meal coupon, remember to tip the waiter for the full value of the check, before the discount. (He/she is working hard for a living and is not the one donating a free meal.) Remember to thank the manager on your way out, on behalf of the Kempsville FRA. |
