Eat at a Fish Fry with ReFuel Pgh.
Have dinner with us! In 2012 ReFuel Pgh teamed up with the Pittsburgh Lenten Fish Fry Society

Fish Fry each Friday from February 24th - April 6th. Join us next year in support of waste oil recycling. The 2013 Lent season starts on February 13th. Visit the GTECH facebook page to stay updates on this and other ReFuel Pgh events throughout the year.
