What the dinner is all about.....Welcome to the Michael Pevny Benefit Scholarship Dinner. Mike Pevny, a 34 year old husband, father, NMHS teacher and coach, had his life tragically cut short in November of 2004. The Michael Pevny Scholarship Dinner was created at that time to honor not only Mike’s memory but also the spirit of generosity that marked his personal and professional life. The dinner has raised more than $40,000 to benefit the New Milford Scholarship fund, and it has enabled us to continue to honor the memory of countless individuals who also have scholarships named in their honor. For the last two years we have paid tribute at the dinner to Lauren Savino, a member of the Class of 2009, who was taken from us at far too young an age. All of the profits from the dinner are used to fund scholarship opportunities for the students of New Milford.
