The Hoosick Area Youth Center & Community Coalition invites the community to a celebration of the bountiful harvest in support of programs for youth and families in the Hoosick area. The Second Annual Harvest Moon Dinner will be held on Saturday, September 25, at the Hoosick Area Youth Center, 115 Church Street, Hoosick Falls.
Last year’s event, which capped off a fantastic Hoosick Pumpkinpalooza, featured a delightful menu of dishes created from items which can be grown and produced in this area. Pumpkin ravioli, apple-stuffed chicken, herb-encrusted roast loin of pork, as well as hors d’oeuvres featuring tomatoes, mushrooms, beef, garlic, peppers and more, were all part of the fabulous creations served in a friendly, community style by a team of volunteer waiters.
The menu for 2010 has again been created by Classe Catering and will bring to the table more surprising flavors developed with local foods. A cash beer and wine bar will be available for this adults-only event, featuring Brown’s Brewery beer on tap. Fabulous fall desserts are also planned.
Auction And Dancing
The evening will include an extensive silent auction along with several live auction items donated by local businesses. Music for dancing will be provided by Mixed Company – an area band brought back by popular demand!
Tickets for this event can be reserved by calling 518-686-9050. Reservations must be made by September 10. Additional details will also be made available around town and through the mail. Visit www.hoosickyouth.org for details on the entire Hoosick Pumpkinpalooza celebration.
