Port Chamber steps into the spotlight

The effort to revive the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce took an elegant step forward on Feb. 7 when the group held a networking social time at Lincoln Village. (Clockwise from top photo) Enjoying the mounds of hors d’oeuvres prepared by Lincoln Village’s executive chef Antonio Evans were John Reichert, owner of Chocolate Chisel, who provided special chocolate bars for the occasion, and Tom Carsons. Tello’s bartender Rodrigo Santamaria prepared drinks for those attending, including (from left) Port Tourism Council Executive Director Kathy Tank, Lincoln Village Executive Director Kaitlyn Malek, who is Chamber secretary, Lincoln Village Director of Community Relations Maureen McCourt Boylan, who is the Chamber vice president, and Merton Lueptow.
