We hope everyone has been able to join us for at least one of the several meals we offer every month.  We always have dinner on the first, third, and fourth Friday nights and breakfast on the first Sunday of each month.  Occasionally a brother or sister will offer to cook on the second or fifth Fridays.  These meals are always welcomed as they give additional reason for members to gather for good food and fellowship.  
In the past, members have prepared a pasta dinner, St. Patrick's Day corned beef meal, or an Italian Sunday Gravy dinner (gravy being tomato sauce to the rest of us.)  On the simpler side, we have had fish fries, soup and sandwich, taco night, etc.  We're the Eagles!  No haute cuisine required!

If you are willing to cook please shoot a message to Trustees@FOE871.com or tell a bartender. Get a group of friends to go in together to share the work and the fun.  You will be reimbursed for your costs. To help your planning, here is a list of the second and fifth Fridays for the rest of the year. Just seven people stepping up would allow us to offer a meal every Friday.  Will you be one?

2nd Friday Meals:

August 8th, September 12th, October 10th, November 14th, December 12th, 

5th Friday Meals:

August 29th, October 31st, (this date is tentatively taken)

The trustees appreciate all who have helped in the past and those who continue to do so.
