Mark your calendars for Sunday, May 4, 2025, as we come together to celebrate the bicentennial of our amazing town, the 40th anniversary of the CVB, and Travel & Tourism Week! Enjoy a spectacular menu of locally sourced meals crafted by chefs from around the city, including Joe Standley of Proud Richards, Richie Frederick of The Corner Deli, Andrew Deuel of The Little Stove, and Bradly Mechol of Kitchen 63. And don’t forget dessert—Abbi Kafer of The Soap Co. Coffee House will be providing delicious pastries and fresh-baked bread for each table! Hamilton’s will be handling our gourmet cheese table along with the bar service for the evening, ensuring a memorable experience. Our tablescape service will also be beautifully provided by them.
