Iron Chef Artman Style!
Things got heated around Artman this summer, and it was more than the seasonal temperatures!  The first ever Artman Iron Chef Competition was held during June, and featured delicious entries by chefs Laura, Hattie, Suzette and Jean.  From Southern styles to Italian fare, the competition was intense!  A panel of colleague judges ruled the contest a four-way tie because they loved everything so much it was impossible to judge.  Great work, Artman chefs and Dining Services!

 Individual golfers ($195) and foursomes ($750) are invited to take place in this exciting day.  These prices include a buffet lunch, cart fees, practice balls, greens fees, dinner and prizes.  For an invitation to this event or for additional information about the Artman Golf Outing, please contact Brenda Doyle at 215-643-6335, extension 101, or via email at bdoyle@libertylutheran.org.
