Civic League Meeting

There will be a general meeting of the Shea Terrace Civic League on Tuesday, December 11 at 7pm at the newly re-opened Flagship Restaurant. The new owner of the Flagship, Kevin Young, will speak to us a little about his menu selections and vision for the establishment. We will also be electing new officers for 2013. If you have an interest in helping out, please let us know, as our VP position is still vacant.

In lieu of a pot luck, Kevin and his staff will be providing delicious samples of menu items from the restaurant. He will also be speaking about an upcoming fundraising toy drive and dinner to be held at the restaurant on Dec 16 at 2-5pm benefiting the Boys and Girls Club of Portsmouth. If you are able, please bring a toy to our meeting next Tuesday, December 11 to help make Christmas possible for the needy children in our local Portsmouth family.

In addition, on Sunday, December 9 at 10:30am, Calvary Baptist church will be celebrating Christmas with a service and music program featuring their Children’s Choir, Teen Choir, Hand Bell Choir, Praise Choir, and Orchestra.

We look forward to seeing you at the Flagship on Dec 11 and our friends at Calvary would love for you to join them on Dec 9.

Respectfully,

Joe Scharl

Flagship Opens

We have received word from the new owners of the Flagship that they are
open and ready for you and your friends to come by.

The restaurant is currently operating a lunch schedule only and will be
open from 11am-4pm.  The new owners are waiting for their ABC license and
will be open for dinner once they have it in hand.

Stop by and welcome the new business to the neighborhood and have a nice
lunch on the water.

Flagship Closes

We are sad to report the closing of the Flagship Restaurant. The establishment began struggling soon after opening, despite a hopeful start. We trust the establishment will be  occupied again (soon), with an owner who has the magic recipe for success.
