Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester Young Professionals Advisory Council to Partner with Rotary on Signature Event

Community professionals to pay tribute to milestone anniversary

Mount Kisco, NY – (September 3, 2013) – Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester’s (BGCNW) Young Professionals Advisory Council (YPAC) will partner with Mount Kisco Rotary Club for its third annual “Tastes of Northern Westchester.” The event will take place on Thursday, October 10, 2013 at Mount Kisco Country Club and will pay tribute to BGCNW’s upcoming 75th anniversary. A majority of the proceeds will benefit BGCNW programs and services.

Established in 2011, YPAC encourages young professionals to participate in their community and appreciate the importance of civic responsibility — an important characteristic also instilled in members of the Club. The council held a series of events in 2012 and this year sought to expand its reach and partner with an organization of like-minded professionals.

“As we seek to inspire young businessmen and women to give back to the community, we also look to work with those who share this philosophy,” said YPAC Co-Chair Emily Stoddard. “We are excited about the opportunity to partner with Mount Kisco Rotary Club on what we anticipate to be a fantastic event.” 

“The Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester is a vital organization in our community,” said Rotary President Judy Simon. “We look forward to congratulating them on such an incredible anniversary — 75 years is truly remarkable.”

Guests will enjoy an assortment of delectable samplings from the finest area restaurants along with a silent auction and live music. The event has benefitted local organizations since it was first held in 2010. Previously, the Rotary partnered with Northern Westchester Hospital and Neighbor’s Link.

“Tastes of Northern Westchester” will be held from 6:00p.m. – 10:00p.m at Mount Kisco Country Club located at 10 Taylor Road, Chappaqua, NY.
