The annual Aprons event, Pheast & Philanthropy, was another great evening! Hosted by the United Way of Central Florida Leadership Giving Association, members had the opportunity to network with each other while enjoying a sumptuous menu. Each course was expertly paired with wine and Mark Mitchell, U.S. Constellation Wines/Centerra Wines, described each selection. New to this year's event was the addition of three panel speakers (Colleen Burton, Tim Campbell, and Bill Dorman) who discussed the importance of getting involved in our community.

Special thanks to Chef Marc Positano, resident chef at the Publix Aprons Cooking School in Sarasota, Mark Mitchell and U.S. Constellation Wines for graciously donating the wine, Wayne Raath and the staff at Lone Palm Golf for their hard work in making the evening a success!
