We all had a great time, and I hope there will be more events scheduled for those of us on the south side of the river.

I had a great time this month; excellent choice of venue. At first thought it seems that it is far out from the city, but it is actually quicker to get to than Short Pump. Great Seasons was very open so I didn't feel like cattle for once and with an outdoor area for smokers, I came home smelling like my cologne and not like cigarette smoke. We must do this there again sometime =)

We live 5 minutes away and we were very excited that we did not have to trek across the river. We arrived early and sat out side for dinner which was great, met the owner and enjoyed chatting with the bar staff. The venue quickly started to fill and for a moment you forgot that you were in a strip mall on the south side! It was an awesome time. We get groceries at that Kroger weekly and had no idea that there was a really great place, gay owned and operated with great food, cheap drinks outside and top shelf inside. Nice to have a choice for a change,... right next door!! We should all support lunch,dinner and Sunday brunch there. Great choice Julie..Please make it happen there again soon...Great to see old friends and it was wonderful meet new friends....Great job!

We had a great time! While I love traveling to venues downtown, it was a nice to change to have something just a few miles from my house. The drinks, food, and staff were great! I look forward to having dinner and brunch there as well. Thank you Julie for coordinating another fantastic event!

I too had reservations about making that far of a trek but it was well worth it! I took my ex who had not yet been to a 4th Friday and he was really impressed with how nice the crowd was. Nice staff, plenty of space and cheap drink prices. Thank you Julie for the GREAT public service you do for your community in coordinating these events!!!

Very nice venue. The staff was great and it was just down the road from where we live. We really enjoyed ourselves.

My friends and had a very nice time. I hope that we will have another one once the resturant is up and running. The staff very nice and so was the owner. Actually very handsome. Thanks for selecting another great location..

Daniel and I had a great time. It is always good to see friends and meet new people. The staff, drink specials, and food were great. There was something for everyone. For those who missed it, they will definately have to catch the next one that is held there. The owner, Todd, was very sweet and personalble. We had a great time talking to him and getting to know the history of his company. Again, great time and location. Everone should spread the word about Todd and Great Seasons Cafe and Seasons Fine Catering. We really need to support our community.

What a great venue with an awesome staff. Thank goodness we did not have to trek downtown to find parking and/or pay for parking. The drink specials alone paid for those complaining about having to drive to the Southside. If you did not come, you missed a great crowd with the most friendly atmosphere and staff yet!! Do it there again, Plzzzzzz

Kirk (Yes)
I must confess, I was ambivalent about a venue so far away from downtown but once I made the trek, partying in a strip mall took on a whole new dimension. I was a little annoyed with the lack of staff and options (Aristocrat booze? PLEASE!) at the outside bar but once inside, the staff and offerings could not have been nicer. It was also fun to see people who rarely come to 4th Fridays because this time is was in their neighborhood. I'm really glad I made the effort! Well done!

Family and Friends,

This year has been the year of breaking out of our traditional mold for the Fourth Friday and this month is no different. Let's wander off our typical beaten bath and pop down to the south side for some good drinks and fine food at


GREAT SEASONS CAFE!


Seasonings Fine Catering and Great Seasons Cafe has a wonderful space where we can spread out and enjoy ourselves either at one of the bars inside or outside in the warm summer air. They are offering $3 domestic drafts, $3 well drinks, and $5 martinis: a drink for all (great) seasons! They are also preparing an abbreviated menu of heavy hors d'oeuvres to tempt our tummies, complete with vegetarian offerings. Please note that the indoor restaurant section is non-smoking, but you can smoke 'em if you got 'em on the patio outdoors.


Please make every attempt to respond by the end of day on Wednesday, July 22th to ensure good service and proper stocking and staffing.


For those of you not familiar with this monthly recurring event, it is designed as an opportunity for members and friends of the Richmond GLBT Community to get together on the fourth Friday of the month, relax, have a few drinks, catch up with old friends, make new ones, and grab a bite to eat.


Please extend this invitation to anybody you know who might be interested but is not included on this list by utilizing the 'Invite More People' link on this page. Feel free to email me at cruise-director@sillyqueer.com with any questions, comments, or recommendations you may have.


For more information regarding the goingson within the Richmond GLBT Community, please check out the site www.gayrva.com and the GLBT Events Calendar at sites.google.com/site/richmondglbtcalend ar/. You can find fun stuff to do, great ways to support the local GLBT Community, and submit events for publicity within the Community at those sites.

I hope everyone is able to join us. If not this month, then in months to come!
