Diners to be Treated to 'New City Nibbles' & Downtown Shopping & Dining Map

On October 16th, 17th and 18th those who love to dine out can enjoy ‘nibbles’ across New City thanks to Home Aides of Rockland, DeCicco Family Markets and the Town of Clarkstown.

Home Aides of Rockland, a not-for-profit organization that helps frail elders and others coping with illness and disability stay safely in their own homes while maintaining independence, organized the first “New City Nibbles” event to not only raise funds for the organization but increase awareness of restaurants and businesses throughout downtown New City. The event will take place simultaneously with the production of a shopping and dining map of downtown New City with DeCicco Family Market of New City as a Premier Sponsor.

The weekend will highlight various eating establishments with the opportunity for event-goers to sample small bites or “nibbles” at participating restaurants throughout the three-day period. In addition to the fundraising event, Home Aides of Rockland partnered with the Town of Clarkstown to produce a town map which will be available for a full year as a guide for shoppers and diners throughout the New City business district. The map will also be available on line with links back to participating restaurants and other eating establishments and businesses.

Tickets will be sold in front of DeCicco’s on Sunday, October 11, Wednesday, October 14, Thursday, October 15th and Friday, October 16th.
