Thank you to everyone who participated in our 2nd annual Sweet Dreams Pastry Chef Competition & Wine Tasting Event! It was incredible to watch top chefs from across Long Island compete in a dessert competition judged by a panel of culinary experts at the Inn & Spa at East Wind in Wading River. We welcomed over 100 guests and raised almost $12,000 to support the hospital’s Emilie Roy Corey Center for Women and Infants and Breast Health Programs! Our executive chef, Chris Singlemann, led the way as chefs crafted themed chocolate masterpieces while competing in categories for the healthiest, most creative, and best overall dessert. We were touched by their passion for nutrition, delicious food, and supporting local healthcare for all women in Eastern Suffolk County.

Today, our team wore RED to raise awareness for heart disease—the leading cause of death for women.

We hope you join us in spreading awareness and supporting healthier hearts today! #NationalWearRedDay
