Moms’ Night

On Wednesday, our FC Moms got together for Moms’ Night: Cooking Edition!  The night included a DIY pizza station, a chopped salad station and a station filled with yummy treats such as a cannoli dip and dessert pizza! It was great fun and a chance for our moms to disconnect from their busy lives and reconnect with friends! Special thank you for our host committee: Deb Berlin, Jenn Layman, Karen Clay, Ronna Riffle and Stephanie Pawlowski for helping to plan such a wonderful evening!
