Nando’s PERi-PERi will give out free flame-grilled chicken and chips Monday, July 18, from 3 to 6 p..m at all US locations to celebrate Mandela Day, honoring the restaurant’s South African heritage.
To receive Nando’s signature meal–a quarter of chicken and fries –on the house, the brand is encouraging customers to donate new school supplies at Nando’s to support underserved local children and schools.
The move is an effort by the Board of Supervisors to help reduce crowding and parking issues at the park. Residents of Stafford and the City of Fredericksburg will park for free with a valid ID showing residence.
“This park is in a flood zone and was never meant to be a high-capacity destination venue. The water on that stretch of the river is also hazardous,” said the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors. “While this was a difficult decision, we think charging for parking will cut down on some of the crowding from visitors, not from Stafford or Fredericksburg, making it a safer experience for everyone.”
Prince William County’s Department of Parks, Recreation, and Tourism tonight will hold a second community master plan meeting for Doves Landing Park, starting at 7 p.m. at the Kelly Leadership Center (Prince William County Public Schools headquarters) at 14715 Bristow Road near Manassas.
