1 Aug. 2023 Northside Retiree Breakfast.



Hello everyone,

Hope that you're all having a wonderful summer. I have news on the Northside Retiree Breakfast. We ARE moving to a new location with a new day/date and time.

The breakfast is moving to D'Agostino's in Niles at 7530 W Oakton Ave. To accommodate us we are going to the first TUESDAY of the month, which will be 01 August. The doors OPEN at 0900 hours, and we will have the place to ourselves until 1100 hours. There will be a small menu of regular breakfast items, the cost will be a phenomenal $15/person which includes tax and tip. Try getting breakfast anywhere else for that (other than McDonald's). So, mark up your calendars and I'll see you there.

Fraternally,

Steve Marchfield
