Benefit Raises over $2,000 for Jeff Corey Jr.’s College Fund

Jeff Corey Jr. Our benefit dinner tonight at Lincoln Square Pancake House generated over $2,000 for Jeffrey Corey Jr.’s college fund. We had a steady stream of customers all night coming in to show their support and have a great dinner (or breakfast). Everybody left full and happy to help. A huge thanks to the Katris family for donating all the food and opening just for the Coreys. Also, an even bigger thanks to the wait staff that worked all day (most since 8:00 am) at no charge just to help out. This was a very generous gesture by the entire Lincoln Square “family.” It reminds me of why I love living at Geist so much.
