March 12, 2010: Silent Supper (Waynesboro)
Finally! With the new year celebration and all the snow, we’ve not been able to get together for a silent supper. Well, with March (luck of the Irish?), that will change.
March 12, 6:00 pm.
Where? At Giovanni’s in Waynesboro. See you there!
The Google maps seems incorrect, so the directions are:
From I-64, go towards Waynesboro on 340. Turn into the Wal-Mart shopping center. In the parking lot on the right side, there is a small strip of shops. Giovanni’s is on the end. Here are some pictures of the location.
