ALEXANDRIA, VA – In honor of National Meatball Day, Lena’s Wood-Fired Pizza & Tap is hosting their First Annual Meatball Madness Relay!

One ticket is entry for your team of four into the relay contest and the contest is open to competitors of all ages! All team members will receive a free t-shirt and coupon for a free Lena’s Giant Meatball.
