Before the grand occasion of KidLinks' highly anticipated 14th Annual Symphony of Chefs fundraiser, event chairs Beanie & Martin Newman, graciously hosted sponsors and patrons on Monday, February 5th, within the elegant ambiance of Nick & Sam’s Steakhouse. Amidst an array of renowned chefs from our local culinary scene, sponsors eagerly vied for their preferred culinary maestros in the annual chef’s draft. The VIP Patron and Chef Selection soirée witnessed table hosts strategically "drafting" their desired chefs, with priority determined by their early commitment and sponsorship level to the event. It was an evening of culinary prowess and community spirit, setting the stage for what will be an unforgettable symphony of flavors in support of KidLinks' noble cause.
