MAM Holding a Special August Dinner to Show Support to the Navy SEAL Families.

Please join Nancy and me on August 29th for a special running of our Military Appreciation Mondays dinner where we will be hosting the Navy SEAL Foundation.   As most of you know, we normally take August and July off due to summer vacations but felt it was important that the community step up and let not only the SEALS but all our servicemen and women know just how much we care.  We are doing in response to the losses to the SEAL family on August 6th.

We are asking everyone to make a reservation sooner rather than later since we would like to fill our room at the Old Brogue to capacity.  Just call (703) 759-3309 and let them know if you would like to attend the 5:30 or the 7:30 seating.  Once you have made a reservation, please drop me an email and let me know you are attending.  If we exceed the Brogue’s capacity, I will make arrangement for other seating.

For those of you unfamiliar with how MAM works, you simply come out and enjoy a great dinner at the Old Brogue in Great Falls. My co-sponsors and I will each make a 10% match of your dinner tab. (As of this writing, a total match of approximately 80 percent.) When we last did a MAM event for the Navy SEAL Foundation, we had a match of 160 percent.  Please let us know if you might be willing to step forward and volunteer to be a cosponsor for this month. We will be doing two seatings at the Old Brogue, so make your reservation for either 5:30 or 7:30. Again, to make a reservation call the Brogue at (703) 759-3309.  All you need to do is pick up the phone, make a reservation and come enjoy a great dinner.   We will also be doing door prize drawings and will certainly welcome any items you might like to donate for the drawing.

I can assure you that it will mean a great deal to the Navy SEALS and their families.  We would love to see a room full of faces who recognize the sacrifices our nation’s TRUE HEROES are asked to make each and every day. Do come join us in sending the message that we truly care. Feel free to drop an e-mail or give a call if you can’t make it out for dinner, but would like to make a donation.
