MILFORD — “I am thrilled to be part of our fifth annual Chefs United Benefit Dinner, which will take place on Thursday Nov. 20 — and tickets are going fast,” said Bob Kiesendahl, owner of the Boat House Restaurant. This special night of culinary delights is hosted by Ehrhardt’s Waterfront Restaurant in partnership with the United Way of Pike County. The evening will showcase the specialties of the area’s finest restaurants. The dining experience is further enhanced by the music of Ray Weeks. “This is one evening that shouldn’t be missed - it’s a night of good food, good music, and good camaraderie.” stated Tom Regenski of Gresham’s Chop House. To further add to the excitement there will be 50/50 raffle and a Silent Auction! When asked about the evening John Gilpin, Pike County Treasurer said, “Perhaps what is best about the Chefs United Benefit Dinner is the knowledge that you are supporting the United Way of Pike County and its efforts to raise money for area human service agencies and organizations. These agencies will then fund area residents in need, and with the current economic situation there will be more people in need of our help.” This event is one of the United Way’s signature fundraiser’s. Tickets are $55 and the evening begins at 6 p.m. Please call the United Way of Pike County at 570-296-9980 to purchase tickets.
