A Message from Roe

What a Summer!! I didn’t know what to expect when taking this assignment. it’s been an exciting and challenging season; we got through but not without the extraordinary help from my staff including our wonderful interim chefs Nancy and Ned!!!

The membership and the Board have been a great support as I called on them for guidance and direction. What a special place I’ve landed in!!

Thank you all for a wonderful first season, enjoy the rest of the year. 

Gratefully,
Roe Torrisi
