Back in November, Seymour Pink secretly helped with the renovation of a Stone’s Throw Restaurant as part of Gordon Ramsay’s FOX TV show 24 Hours to Hell and Back. Seymour Pink board members and volunteers spent hours working on the tiles that now adorn the foyer in the updated restaurant. Unfortunately, the producers ultimately did not include Seymour Pink in the show that aired Jan. 30th, 2019. While we are a little disappointed that we weren’t included in the national TV show – we all know that this was just another example of how we support our community.
I wanted to share with you what Stone’s Throw planned for last night’s viewing party.
They really made it a lot of fun! Each place setting had a trivia game based on the Gordon Ramsey‘s visit. The trivia quiz contain 30 or so questions about Stone’s Throw, about Gordon Ramsey’s visit, about Tara and Peter and their family.Prizes were awarded to the top three individuals with the most correct answers. To participate in the trivia game you paid five dollars. In addition they had a 50-50 raffle. And they had a colorful game going on at the bar.
All of these games that they planned, raised money and last night at the end when the show was over, Peter and Tara presented Seymour Pink with close to $1000 in money raised just from the games they use to connect all of us last night!
Is that not something else or what?
This was THEIR night and instead they turned around and made it our night! If you have not had a chance to have lunch or dinner or brunch at Stone’s Throw, you’re missing out!
We have been three or four times in the past month and a half and each time we have gone, our food has been fabulous! If you like burgers, I recommend Wednesdays when they have a burger and brew special! …the bacon jam burger is the BEST EVER! But last night I had a pasta dish …wild mushroom Bolognese that was over the top!
Thank you Stone’s Throw, thank you Tara and Peter, thank you Jennifer and thank you to your entire waitstaff for an amazing evening for all of us!
