Mount Kisco Child Care Center (MKCCC) will host its 10th Annual Feed Me Fresh: An Edible Evening event on Saturday, September 20, 2014 beginning at 6:00pm. The signature annual fundraiser will once again be hosted by Eric Hadar at Ivanna Farms in Bedford Corners, NY. Honorary Co-Chairs Curt Beusman, Sharon Pollack and Fran Osborne will coordinate the honoree recognition. Kelly Sullivan, of Quaker Hill Tavern in Chappaqua, is the returning Event Chair.
This 10th Annual event will celebrate the long-time dedication of two past MKCCC Board Presidents, Clark Robson and Janet Schloat, and the outstanding community leadership each continues to demonstrate. We also look forward to honoring our friends, neighbors and supporters, Joe and Joan DiMauro, owners of everyone’s favorite Mt. Kisco Seafood.
