Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chicken and waffles. Shrimp and grits. Greens. And lemon pound cake for dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These traditional \u201csoul foods\u201d and much more are on the menu of the first Soul Food Brunch, scheduled for 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Feb. 27 at The Recovery Station, 5256 Clinton St. Rd., Batavia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat better way to bring folks together and celebrate Black History Month than with food and conversation?\u201d said Kenyetta Reese, case manager at UConnectCare (formerly Genesee\/Orleans Council on Alcoholism and Substance Abuse).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reese is organizing the event, which is free and open to the public, while sisters Sheila Rolle-Smith and V.J. Rolle-Belle are coordinating the effort, along with others, to put the food on the table for all to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be a part of this event,\u201d said Rolle-Smith, a case manager at UConnectCare. \u201cThis gives us a chance not only to share our black history but to learn from each other in a festive setting. It\u2019s really all about respect for one another.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reese is reaching out to the community for groups wanting to assist in making the brunch a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVolunteers are definitely welcome. And we\u2019re always looking for Black-owned businesses to showcase,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To sign up for the event, go to The Recovery Station\u2019s Facebook page or contact Reese at kreese@uconnectcare.org<\/a>. The deadline to register is Feb. 23.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
