Dear members and friends of KFES!
This is to inform you of a change of venue for our monthly luncheons. Instead of meeting at the Holiday Inn in Clearwater, we will meet on Sunday, May 2, 2010 at Mattison’s Riverside Restaurant 1200 1st Ave. W, in Bradenton. The time is still 2 p.m. Each individual/couple will be ordering from the restaurant menu and paying his/her/their own lunch bill. A room has been reserved for our members; just ask the host to guide you when you arrive. We will be trying out the venue on that Sunday so we can decide if we would like to meet there for next year’s get-togethers. So, please attend and offer your opinion! The food is delicious and the view wonderful!! For more information, contact:
Mr. Rein Raja at (727) 866-2614, raja7@juno.com

There is plenty of space for parking.
From the south, take Rt 41 to Manatee Ave., make a left turn and drive to 12th street, make a right turn and the restaurant is directly ahead.
