Our Kendall College Scholarship award dinner will be held this evening in conjunction with the Board of Governors of the Americas (BGA) meeting being held in Chicago throughout the week. The BGA attendees hail from all over the country and Canada, and we'll also have some of the members of the International Council joining as well. In addition to the two scholarships we normally provide, the BGA will be awarding an additional scholarship this evening as well. The dinner has been planned by Kendall's Events Chef Louis Dourlain and under his watchful eye will be very ably prepared and served by the culinary students.

Price is $190 per person. Pricing is higher than normal, as additional courses have been added to our normal scholarship dinner format and the wines will be sourced especially for our dinner, however I have it on good authority that a side-by-side of 1986 Bordeaux will be part of the lineup. Ladies and guests welcomed and encouraged. Dress is business casual. Aperitif at 6:30 with dinner starting at 7:15.

Please reserve your place by Saturday, September 13th.
