Contemporaries’ Progressive Dinner Delicious Success
The Contemporaries of the Womanʼs Club of Westwood hosted 70 guests at its Second Annual Progressive Dinner charity event on Friday, April 12, raising more than $1,500 for Meals on Wheels of North Jersey and supporting the Womanʼs Club of Westwood scholarship fund for a local high school student. The night kicked off with happy hour at Cafe Anello where members got to meet and mingle before heading to one of five
restaurants in downtown Westwood. The Contemporaries and their guests enjoyed specialty cocktails and conversation before attendees were randomly divided into five groups to enjoy multicourse prix fixe dinners at Al Dente Pasta Co., Granita Grille, Hanami, Phonecian & Prime Eats. The night concluded at Five Dimes Brewery, where members were able to reconnect and share their dining experience with one another.

Nicole Dragona, committee chair and a founder of The Contemporaries, told Pascack Press on April 17 that she was proud of what the young committee has accomplished to date. “The vision for The Contemporaries is to bring together women across Westwood in a way that would be empowering while also serving our Westwood community. The dedication of our members to this organization and
how we come together working hard as a team is what has made being a part of the club worth it for me,” she said. The Contemporaries thank the named restaurants, for partnering to craft special menus, and all of their sponsors: Al Dente Pasta Co., Coldwell Banker of Pascack Valley, DeLuca Family Insurance Agency, and dessert sponsor Conradʼs Confectionary. “The fundraising efforts

could not have been as successful without their generosity,” Dragona said. The mission of The Contemporaries of the Womanʼs Club of Westwood is to bring together a diverse group of women in an inclusive environment who, through fellowship, volunteerism, and leadership, engage in local philanthropy to serve the greater Westwood community.
