An extra special thank you to the CU team that helped make this event happen: Ashley Brannon, Nancy Colvin, Susan Post, Tyler Wiseman, Rebecca Wagner, Brent Warren, Anne and Walker Evans! This was my first event with CU and I am so fortunate to have such a supportive and welcoming new team of co-workers! They work really hard, but have so much fun in the process.
You helped us donate $3,000 to Neighborhood Services, Inc., a local charity that works to alleviate poverty and provide food services here in Columbus. The Columbus Underground Best Bites event series have collectively raised over $13,000 for local charities since August 2014.
We hope you enjoyed a Pacifico Clara along with your pizza and got some swag from the Order Up team!
Additional thanks to Made From Scratch who hosted us at the new Valley Dale Ballroom.
Thanks for all of your support! We love hosting the Best Bites event series and we hope to see you at Best Bites: Brunch on April 14th at the historic Columbus Atheneum!
