Recap: Best Buddies at The Vandal

Best Buddies, an organization focused on fostering one-on-one friendships, integrated employment opportunities, and leadership cultivation for individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD), recently held a meetup at the Vandal to promote their latest friendship initiative event, Taste Buds.

The meet up paired chefs with participants in the Best Buddies program in order to create a delectable dish for the organization’s gala tasting reception on November 15th.

Taste Buds will also include a silent auction, live entertainment, and *drum roll* an open bar. The event will be held at The River’s Casino ball room.

Below are the chefs and their buddies scheduled for the event.
