Family Affair

By Staff Report | Entertainment

SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Saratoga Center for the Family (SCFF) will recognize Sonny Bonacio at the inaugural Corks, Forks & Brews; a wine, beer and food tasting event at Saratoga National Golf Club on Thursday, November 14 from 6—10 p.m.

Sonny will be recognized for his recent efforts with the SCFF’s facility on Ballston Avenue’s renovations following a fire this past May. His firm completed the renovations within five months while Saratoga Center operated out of temporary office space at the Presbyterian—New England Congregational Church. 

Which is something to be thankful for and a reason for a town that rarely needs a reason to throw a great party. 

This is the inaugural year for Corks, Forks & Brews and it looks like it will be out of the starting gate with a bang. Here’s the lineup: wine from select featured vineyards and several New York state craft brews donated by title sponsor DeCresente Distributing Company. Cuisine from Mazzone Hospitality. music from Big Medicine. The Heather Bohm-Tallman crazy photo booth (rest assured, my research department has learned that the photos that come out will be of you and yours, not Heather acting crazy), raffles and other features.

Tickets are $100, for ages 35 and younger its $75. “This was a long five months for us,” Executive Director Deborah Tomaso said.

“We are so happy to be back in our space. Sonny and his team made the whole renovation process as easy as something like this could be, they were great. This event is truly an opportunity to celebrate a fresh start while raising funds for the important work we do.”
