Giving back TO our GIVErs
With heavy hearts the 2020 Battle of the Chefs has been cancelled due to COVID-19.
BUT... WE LOOK FORWARD TO BRINGING BACK THIS CORNERSTONE FUNDRAISING EVENT IN 2021!
We would like to acknowledge that these sold out events – which raised more than $159,000 in the last four years – would not have been possible without the amazing participation of local businesses, restaurants and bakeries.
Their generous financial support, and the commitment of their time, energy and talent to this annual fundraiser is the very core of its success.
Now these "Givers" need the help of our community in order to stay in business during these turbulent economic times.
Please consider supporting the local companies that are here to serve you.
