Standing Up To Sandy: A Benefit Concert

 ,   Add to calendar
 Yorktown-Somers  See map

This event was put together by a couple of Carmel Central School District's students, Haley O' Connor, Margaret Chan, Hailey and Samatha Knox with the help and supervision of their mother Jamie Knox.


The event is being held at The Winery at St. George on Saturday, Nov. 17 from 3-6pm.


This event costs $10 dollars, there will be 12 performing acts, from musicians as well as a comedian and a pianist, featuring the Knox Sisters and AsmarA. The event is kid- friendly.


There will be raffles with a chance to win great prizes that were donated by Randovich and Dean, Carmel Diner, Carmel Cinema, and Magic Mirror Salon just to name a few.


All the proceeds will go to the Archdiocese of NY to help the families affected by hurricane sandy.


We hope to have a great turnout! This is going to be a fantastic event, you will have a good time and be supporting a great cause!


Big thanks to all the wonderful places that donated gift certificates and such to be used as prizes and a big thanks to The Winery at St. George for giving us the space to have our event!


Hope to see you there!

Mr. Lachterman, You wrote "When Councilmen Bianco, Paganelli and Patel decided that theRead More Winery did not have the right to have a public hearing on their wetlands permit, they drew a line in the sand between personal interests and all business, large or small, in Yorktown." The wetland permit was NOT for the Winery. It was town land that we--the taxpayers--own. It's not "their" permit. Do you think that we should give away--for free--any town park/wetland to any business that asks. I'm not against working out an agreement whereby we charge the winery to develop parking and an outdoor cafe seating area on our (Yorktown owned) land. But you can bet your bottom dollar that I would want to codify it with a lease and charge him market rate for it. Capitalism, not communism. Those councilman made the right choice. It looked and smelled like a giveaway to a political ally of the supervisor. The winery had no inherent right to a public hearing on what we, the taxpayer, do with our land.
