Come join Yale GALA's Rosemary Palladino and FFR/Princeton BTGALA for a very special summer outing at the South Fin Grill in the center of South Beach on Staten Island.
Enjoy a great view of the ocean, the boardwalk and the Verrazano Bridge along with $10 white sangria made with fresh fruit. With charming staff and a beautiful location, this great venue makes a visit to the under-appreciated boro of Staten Island a treat.
Organized by Shawn Cowls of FFR/Princeton BTGALA with co-Hosts Rosemary Palladino (Yale GALA), Chuck Edwards (Dartmouth GALA) & Chris Bauer (Stanford Pride)
Getting there? If you're driving, we're at the corner of Father Capodanno and Sand Land right at the boardwalk.
Ever been jealous of the fancy express buses that the outer borough residents have? It is a few bucks more than the subway, but will get you there quickly & in style. Try:
-X5 bus from Midtown all the way there (57th & 3rd Ave, Lex & 34th St, 23rd & 1st Ave)
- X4 (Greenwich & Battery), X7 (West & Carlyle), X8 (Frankford & Pearl) from downtown Manhattan or
-Take the Staten Island Ferry and then the S51 or S81 buses. Get off at the corner of Father Capodanno & Sand Lane (ask driver to tell you where to get off)
