What To Do in Armonk, Bedford & Chappaqua

I was asked in the bleak days of January to come up with some menus for a Memorial Day Celebration for the What To Do guide that just came out and is distributed in Bedford, Armonk & Chappaqua, so I surrounded myself with flags, sang I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy and got typing. I know May is still a bit away but there really is no time like the present to begin planning a party! Look for the guide in your mailbox, it is packed with useful information. In the days ahead I will post the decor ideas they requested as well.
