Bartender Marathon
ALEXANDRIA, VA – It was just for an evening, but Alexandria Living Legend Brooke Sydnor Curran, founder and CEO of RunningBrooke guest bartended at Cafe 44, at 44 Canal Center Plaza #401, to raise funds for her foundation. A great group came out to support the kids and enjoy cocktails, conversation, and sweeping views of the Potomac.
