Food fest!!


East Montgomery Montessori School, 6801 Vaughn Road, will have its International Food Festival from 6-8 p.m. Saturday. There will be a silent auction, raffle and en­tertainment. Admission is $10. 272-5097.

Food from Syria, India, Denmark and Israel -- just to name a few countries -- will be featured along with country-specific booths. Guests pay the fee, get a plate, and circulate the room getting a taste of anything they'd like from each booth. At 7 p.m., a belly dancer demonstration is planned. There is also a silent auction running through the evening.

I'll be covering this for the Advertiser, and spoke with office administrator Frances Bell yesterday about this annual event. The school has about 60 students per year, and the majority are from families attached to the War College Maxwell AFB. Every year, the international mix of students lends itself to the food festival, which is the school's most important fund raiser.
