When Bay Ridge Community Council serves lunch, everyone shows up to eat!
Pols, business leaders, civic do-gooders, clergy all take part
If you want to find anyone who is a very important person in Bay Ridge, then the Bay Ridge Manor catering hall on 76th Street is the place to be on Feb. 1. There, you’ll find the neighborhood luminaries all under one roof.
The Bay Ridge Community Council will hold its annual Presidents’ Luncheon at the Manor on Saturday, giving hundreds of the neighborhood’s movers and shakers the chance to rub elbows with each other while munching on sesame chicken.
“It’s always a wonderful event,” Jane Kelly, a past community council president, told the Brooklyn Eagle. “It gives you the opportunity to talk to community leaders about what is going on in the neighborhood. And all of our local elected officials always come and speak. They always want to make an announcement about what they’re doing.”
