Friendship Force Breakfast

Location – Stauffer’s Cafe, 5600 South 48th Street

Friendship Force breakfast and conversation is always the second Saturday of the month – 8:30 a.m. If you have heard of Friendship Force and would like know more or are considering joining, you are invited to our informal breakfast gathering. No meeting is held, just conversation and a few announcements about upcoming events and travel exchanges. No advanced reservation is required.

Let’s Eat Out

Leo is a social event where FFL members meet in a local restaurant for an evening meal. While this is a time to catch up with your FFL friends it has been a great time for newer or prospective members to get to know what we are all about as well as meet members individually in a relaxed setting.

Reservations need to be made by the Friday of the preceding week. Reservations are easy to make.

See you there!
