Regional Dinner: Food & Wine From Naples

It would be very difficult to say who has been the most enthusiastic CCF Member, but many would agree that Anthony Correra would come to mind immediately as someone whose love for the Foundation was infectious. He encouraged us all to celebrate our Italian American heritage and his enjoyment of Italian culture was limitless. On March 4, we celebrate his life and legacy with a special Regional Dinner devoted to the food and wine of Napli.

The Food & Beverage and Events Committees are pleased to open bookings for the Naples Regional Dinner. Join us on Saturday, March 4, for a cocktail reception at 6:30 PM. Dinner at 7:15pm. The Events Committee has arranged for Charlie Romo to join us to add great music to the evening. Proceeds from the evening pay tribute to longtime Member Anthony Correra through support for the scholarship fund in his name.
