***ANNIVERSARY EDITION*** Westview Pizza Café is turning one year old! They will have specials for their anniversary, so make sure to come out and help celebrate this Westview business!
On the third Thursday each month we will gather to socialize at the Westview Pizza Cafe.
This will be a chance to get to know your neighbors in a casual environment and support a locally owned business. Have kids? You can meet other families and setup play dates! Don’t have kids? You can meet neighbors to invite over for dinner (and drinks)! This is a chance to get to know each other and hang out.
If you don’t live in Westview but are interested in moving to the neighborhood this is a great opportunity to meet people that do live here. Just one warning – once you get to know the folks living here you won’t want to look anywhere else! Seriously, we have some awesome neighbors.
Please mark your calendars and join us!
