New on our YouTube channel: Dining Out for Life Kick-off

Wednesday, April 17th, 2013

On Tuesday, April 9, 2013 we held our kick-off ribbon cutting and reception for Dining Out for Life Hudson Valley at the Ice House in Poughkeepsie. Over 80 guests attended, including several members of the Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce. Mid-Hudson Subaru, our main DOFL sponsor, brought along a highly coveted 2014 Subaru Forester. The Ice House provided complimentary hors d’oeuvre and live music. With temperatures above 70 degrees, we were able to enjoy the Ice House’s outdoor patio overlooking the mighty Hudson River. Cablevision Neighborhood News was on hand to capture the fun on film.
