1st Annual Culinary Challenge to Benefit WLAM Foundation
The WLAM Foundation is one of three charities designated to receive proceeds from the 1st Annual Culinary Challenge, set for 6:00 p.m. on June 10, 2008, at the home of Michigan Court of Appeals Judge Elizabeth Gleicher and Mark Granzotto, in Pleasant Ridge. Other charities to benefit from the event are Alternatives for Girls and Crossroads for Youth. The event succeeds the Softball Challenge that pitted judges against lawyers in a benefit softball game, hosted by the Wayne Region of the Women Lawyers Association of Michigan for twenty years. This year, women lawyers in the tri-county region (Wayne, Oakland and Macomb Counties) will search out and crown an "Iron Chef" from among district, circuit, appellate and retired judges in the tri-county area. Attendees will vote on the dishes prepared; light appetizers by district judges, heavy appetizers by circuit judges, and desserts by appellate and retired judges. A raffle during the event will add to what is expected to be a terrific evening.
Tickets to the event, which cost $50 each, may be purchased by mail. Send a check payable to "WBA," addressed to Nicole E. Wilinski, Kelley Casey & Moyer PC, 19501 E. 8 Mile Rd., Saint Clair Shores, MI 48080. Sponsorship opportunities also are available, and organizers are looking for additional chef participants: forms are posted at www.wlamfoundation.org.
Registration forms for pariticipants and sponsors are attached.
