Date:  August 2, 2013
Time:  8:00 am - 5:30 pm
Cost:  $49/person (all inclusive)
Meet:  Buehler's River Styx

Join us for a fun day full of eating with interesting stops along the way.  All the food is included in the price.

We'll start by meeting at Buehler's Main Street Grill (River Styx) to enjoy a breakfast of pancakes & coffee - a delightful way to start your day, eating and chatting with friends!

Our coach will be waiting to take us to the Crawford Auto Museum, a part of the Western Reserve Historical Society at University Circle.  We'll get to see their collection of cars and trucks that make up Cleveland's automobile history.

Hope the Indians are still winning in August as we enjoy a winning buffet lunch at the Terrace Club Restaurant at Progressive Field.

Next, we'll go down the street to the Old Stone Church for a visit along with a presentation on the history of the church and history of Cleveland.  Their organist will present a short concert and you can expect to sing a couple of favorite hymns.

Finally, we will travel west to Lakewood and stop at the original Malley's Chocolate Shop on Madison Avenue.  We will all enjoy the specialty of the house - a Hot Fudge Sundae!  You will have time to shop before we leave for home.

Come along for what will surely be a fun and delicious day!  Friends are always welcome.  Laughing
