Alfisti, and other FOA (friends of Alfisti) are reminded to mark their calendars, if they haven’t already done so, for Sunday, 10 November 2013, for what may be the last opportunity of the year to enjoy your ALFA (or other favorite marque, if you so desire) before the nasty winter weather sets in, and at the same time renew acquaintances with old friends (and maybe make some new friends), and enjoy a glass of wine and what promises to be another first class lunch organized by the club’s Alan Aptner at the Black Bass Inn Lumberville, PA.
Those planning on participating are requested to RSVP by NOT LATER THAN Wednesday 30 October, to Alan Aptner who has worked hard to negotiate the same package price of $30.00 per person, even though this is a busy season for the restaurant. RSVP to Alan at email alan@dvaroc.org or phone 215-321-8312.
At that time please let Alan know the following:
a- How many people in your party (total number), and –
b- Whether or not you (and they) will be joining us for lunch at the Black Bass Inn in Lumberville, at the conclusion of the tour, and, if so –
c- Selection of one appetizer (soup OR salad), and one entree (see menu selections below) for each person in your party, and –
d- Cell phone and email where you can be reached (cell phone is especially important on tour day- please make sure it has adequate charge)
Please note- Participants will be required to be prepared to pay, either by check (preferrable)- payable to Alan Aptner, or cash, on tour day (NOT BEFORE), prior to departure from the starting point. Once participants have committed to lunch with the club at the Black Bass (by Wed 30 Oct), they will be obligated to pay, whether or not they actually attend. This is necessary because the club will be committed to the restaurantfor the final head count.
