Lions Seventh Annual Chowder Fest "A Tasty Success"

Medfield Lion’s Seventh Annual Chowder Fest a Big Hit

After several weeks of planning the Medfield Lions Club teamed up with the Friends of Seniors Inc. (FOSI) to host Medfield’s Seventh Annual Chowder Fest on Saturday November 7th at the Center at Medfield. The Lions and FOSI would like to personally thank the local restaurateurs/markets who made this fund raiser a success: Craig Neubecker of Zebra’s Bistro and Wine Bar, Tommy McGue of Basils Restaurant, Steve Slesor of Noon Hill Grill, William Ferranti of Ice House Restaurant at the Kingsbury Club, John Boardman of J & L Catering Medway, and Janet O’Connor of Roches Market/Brothers Marketplace. Out of this world delicious rolls were provided by Dan Freedman of Blue Moon Bagel Café and Big Y Markets provided the soft drinks. Special thanks to COA Director Roberta Lynch whose continuing support makes the Chowder Fest a running success. Event Coordinator Lion Tony Centore commented that “The local Medfield community enjoys this annual event and we served over 150 people, and generated over $1,100 to support the good work of FOSI.” Chuck Conti FOSI president said the funds raised will help to underwrite fitness classes at the Center. The “Best Chowder” winner will be officially announced at the December Lions Dinner Meeting on December 2nd. Lion Tony’s only hint is that “the winner has won two previous awards”.
