Who Will Get a Pie in the Face?

On Oct. 18, from 6 – 8 p.m. it’s “Contractor vs. Architect” at Cranston 99’s popular Celebrity Bartender Night. The night promises to be wild and crazy as Anthony D’Antuono of New England Construction and Mark Saccoccio of Saccoccio & Associates, Cranston, do all they can to vie for tips that will help BGCW “build” great futures for kids! The bartender with the least amount of tips will receive a pie in the face!! Last year’s contest raised more than $5000!

Dining For a Cause

Tuesday, October 18, is also Dining For A Cause. Present a voucher (you can download one by going to the Club’s website at www.wbgclubs.org, click on Special Events, and then click on the ‘Pie in the Face’ icon.) Present the voucher at the Pie in the Face fundraiser, and Ninety Nine Restaurant will donate 15% to BGCW!
