Food, Fun and Fundraising at
The Annual TASTE OF ELMWOOD takes place on the first Thursday of February and was sucessful from the get-go. In just two years, it has become the premier winter event, spotlighting so many good things that Elmwood has to offer. “This event has a way of drawing the community together like no other event in town,” commented Dr. Rick Liftig from the Elmwood Business Association. “It’s fun. There’s food. It’s for a good cause. What more do you need on a cold winter evening?” The event draws many restaurants and sponsors each year and a portion of the proceeds benefit Saint Brigid School and The Elmwood Business Association. “We are proud to host this fun event - in the name of good food, fundraising and fun for the whole family,” said Principal Shevon Sweeney Hickey, of Saint Brigid School.
