Belden School Preservation Committee<br />
Is Thankful for a Summer Feast<br />
By LINDA NIESSNER<br />
GTF Board President<br />
Even though we are at winter’s<br />
threshold and getting ready for<br />
our annual Thanksgiving feast,<br />
the Belden Committee recalls<br />
a delightful end-of-summer<br />
fundraiser feast at Fried Green<br />
Tomatoes (FGT). Fred Bonnet,<br />
FGT owner, graciously donated<br />
a portion of the proceeds from<br />
his now famous Lobster Boil to<br />
the Belden School Preservation<br />
fund. <strong>The</strong> meal, ambiance and<br />
service were exquisite and everyone<br />
came away from the evening<br />
with a big smile.<br />
In addition to providing a great<br />
meal for the guests that filled<br />
the restaurant, Bonnet pulled<br />
the winning ticket for the raffle<br />
prize provided by Territorian<br />
Carol Ortega. Ortega designed,<br />
created and donated a beautiful<br />
round stained glass piece which<br />
<strong>Territory</strong> residents Marilyn and<br />
Irle Boehm were the happy<br />
winners of the stained glass art<br />
work created and donated by<br />
property owner Carol Ortega.<br />

Tomatoes owner Fred Bonnet as he pulls the winning raffle ticket<br />
for a stained glass piece at FGT during the Lobster Boil dinner.<br />
Bonnet donated a portion of each lobster dinner to Belden School’s<br />
preservation. Photos by Linda Niessner.<br />
was raffled off at the Lobster<br />
Boil. Ortega and her husband<br />
Zaty are long-time supporters of<br />
the Belden preservation efforts.<br />
<strong>Territory</strong> residents Marilyn and<br />
Irle Boehm were the winners<br />
of the decorative stained glass<br />
piece.<br />
Thank you to everyone who attended<br />
the dinner and thank you<br />
to those who purchased raffle<br />
tickets. Thank you also to the<br />
folks in the GTA Administrative<br />
Office for selling raffle tickets.<br />
Little Belden has many friends<br />
and the BSPC members are<br />
thankful for each and every<br />
one.<br />
