Updated: ARCS in the News!

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

Update: ARCS’ Executive Director, Jeff Kraus, was interviewed on WAMC regarding the fact that New York State is withholding payments to contracted not-for-profits. While this situation is not unique to ARCS, unfortunately, as you’ll hear in the interview, it has placed us in a precarious financial predicament.

Chill Out: ARCS' Summer Friendraiser

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Sample fantastic new wines, indulge in some tasty tapas, and gather with new and old friends at Beacon’s always-charming Chill Wine Bar for ARCS’ summer Friendraiser cocktail party.

On Thursday, August 19th from 6 to 10 pm, Jim and Patrick of Chill (and the newly-opened Cafeteria in New Paltz) will be serving up complimentary cheese platters along with their tapas menu and a cash bar. From 6 to 7 pm, enjoy a wine tasting with Bill Cole from Lauber Imports, and if you like it you’ll be able to grab more at the bar. We’ll also be giving away door prizes and holding a small silent auction, featuring wines, liquors, sports tickets and more surprises.

At last year’s event, over 100 of you turned out for one of our most successful Friendraisers ever. Make sure to RSVP for one of August’s coolest events! Our Friendraisers are casual open-house events, so feel free to drop in whenever you like!

Chill will also be donating a portion of the evening’s sales to ARCS, so make sure to eat and drink well to benefit our services!

$20 suggested donation at the door. To RSVP, please call Jana at (914) 785-8283 or email her at jfernandes@arcs.org.

"Chill Out" Raises More Than $1,200 for ARCS

Friday, August 14th, 2009

On Thursday, August 13, 2009 ARCS held its summer Friendraiser–the latest in our series of casual cocktail parties–at Chill Wine Bar in Beacon, NY. Over 100 guests enjoyed live jazz music, complimentary cheese platters, door prizes, raffle items and lively conversation. Through donations and raffle sales, we raised more than $1,200 for ARCS’ programs for HIV-positive Hudson Valley residents in need. Raffle prizes included tickets to “Chicago” donated by Barbara Bennet, a hot stone massage from Aniceto America & Associates, a microdermabrasion treatment from American Laser Centers, a magnum of Chateau Fourcas Hosten donated by Arlington Wine & Liquor, a $50 gift certificate to Terrapin Restaurant in Rhinebeck, and a set of Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignons donated by Bob Brink (Arlington’s wine buyer).

ARCS would also like to thank Jim and Patrick, the owners of Chill, for hosting the event, and for bringing in a delightful jazz duo. Special thanks to Stephan Hengst from BigGayHudsonValley.com for serving as our announcer!
