Cookies & Cocktails: A Holiday Party & Food Drive for ALIVE!
Hosted by Revolutionary Fitness
📅 Saturday, December 6 | 2–4 PM

After the Scottish Christmas Walk and before the Alexandria Boat Parade, stop by Revolutionary Fitness for a little holiday cheer that gives back.

Bring your food. Bring your friends. Bring your holiday spirit.
