Since a reader asked specifically about our emcee, Scott Abdul-Salaam, who is a true friend of Family Services, Inc. I thought I'd share his contact information. He has a private foundation, ScottCares Foundation. Their website is www.scottcaresnc.org. I know he'd love for you to check it out. He makes scholarships available for kids wanting to go to college.
Scott is a graphic designer as well. If you saw one of our male staffers out in the lobby walking around in red high heels (Jonathan) advertising the upcoming "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes" then you really missed a sight! Last September was the first annual event that highlighted men taking to the street in high heels as their statement to end violence against women. Scott designed all the posters and t-shirts for the event and we're preparing to do it all again Saturday, September 18th. Scott looks great in heels by the way! His company is Next Level Accessories at www.nextlevelaccessories.com.
For those of you who have asked about the band, The Twin City Buskers, I have to say I was really impressed with their music too! Po' Heath Combs is my contact; if you're interested in contacting them, you can reach Heath at combsheath@yahoo.com. What a great group of guys!
If you have any more questions, let me know!

And the winner is....Family Services, Inc.!
You realize of course that I am a little biased, but this year's Taste of the Town was incredible! The restaurants completely outdid themselves, bringing an assortment of amazingly scrumptuous culinary delights! 21 restaurants competed for the best of the best amongst the patrons as well as our elite panel of judges, Michael Hastings, Food Editor of the Winston-Salem Journal; Al Romano, Instructor in the Culinary Program of GTCC; Chef Don McMillan, Owner of The Stocked Pot; and Chef Derrick McCorkle, Exec. Chef of WSSU/Aramark.
For those of you who did not stick around for the “medal ceremony”, or who weren't there, I’m going to give you the run down of who won what and from whom. You may find your favorite new restaurant on this list. (Don't forget to click on the restaurants in the right column to go to their websites.)
First came the “Mint Julep Contest” winner and that was The Old Fourth Street Filling Station!
For our “Chef’s Awards” were their top three restaurants:
1st place-Ollie’s Bakery
2nd place-Downtown Thai & sushi
3rd place-Jimmy’s Seafood & Oyster Bar
The “People’s Choice” awards went to the following restaurants in four categories:
Best Booth
1st place Jimmy’s Seafood
2nd place Downtown Thai
3rd place Bib’s Downtown
Best Dessert
1st place Ollie’s Bakery
2nd place Cake Ladies
3rd place Blue Ridge Ice Creams
Best Non-Dessert
1st place Carrabba’s
2nd place Village Tavern
3rd place Jimmy’s Seafood
Best All-Around Restaurant
1st place- Carrabba’s
2nd place-Jimmy’s Seafood
3rd place-Ollie’s Bakery
I don't know about you, but I really don't ever remember seeing the Kentucky Derby run in 5 or 6 inches of standing water! I'm just glad none of the horses/jockeys were hurt.
Calvin Borel, who rode Super Saver to the win, changed history as it was his third Kentucky Derby victory in the last four years! Close on Super Saver's heels were Ice Box who placed and Paddy O'Prado in the show position. It was such an exciting race even though it lasted only 2 min. and 2.4 seconds!
It was so much fun having Austin Caviness as Auctioneer again this year; he's terrific! Not only that but he agreed to be auctioned off at Taste this year as part of a cooking package. One lucky bidder will be taking cooking lessons with Austin at the Stocked Pot thanks to Don McMillan! That should be hilarious! We also auctioned off an evening at The Idiot Box, Jenny Stencel's improv comedy club in Greensboro, along with dinner at Natty Greene's...what fun! Our other WXII package was a round of golf for 4 including Cameron Kent at Tanglewood's Championship Course plus lunch afterward at Jimmy's Seafood and Oyster Grill. Interestingly enough, Mary Annicelli took that package home!
We auctioned off a fabulous package with Josh Howard including lunch for 10 at the Piedmont Club plus signed ball and shoes and a NASCAR package that included hanging at Richard Childress'condo among other great things!
I do have to give a shout out to the fabulous band that entertained us all evening. They are the Twin City Buskers and I have to say they were wonderful! They played Blues and some Bluegrass and a little in between. The crowd really seemed to enjoy their sound; I know I did! I happened upon them when I met with Ginger Henricks, the new Executive Director of BOOKMARKS Book Festival. Come to find out, her fiance had a band. Well once I heard a CD, I was hooked! Check them out!
Thank you to everyone that turned out Saturday and in particular to the nearly 100 volunteers it took to put it on! Now it's time to start planning next year's event. If you have any ideas about what we could do differently, please feel free to let me know!

On your mark, get set......
It's that time again. I can't believe it's almost here! There are so many things going on with the Taste of the Town this year, you're not going to believe it when you get there!
Tickets! They are available still at Lowes Foods in and around Winston-Salem, including Advance, at the Davidson County Line and in Kernersville and Walkertown. They will be selling tickets up through the event if you're on your way and haven't got a ticket, go by Lowes Foods' Customer Service desk and get them at $25. You'll save $5 because they're $30 at the door!
If you were considering buying tickets online, get them today! They will not be available online Friday because we can't get info to Will Call in time.
Family Services closed at 1pm on Fridays so get them today or tomorrow morning here at 1200 S. Broad St. in Winston-Salem. That should cover the ticket situation.
I'll be on WXII tomorrow morning with three of our restaurants that are coming to the Taste, Bib's Downtown, Meridian Restaurant and Jimmy's Seafood and Oyster Bar! We'll be on between 6 and 7 with Jennie Stencel at the Benton Convention Center. Watch for us!
We have a winner for the Mint Julep Contest but you won't find out which restaurant won until Saturday toward the end of the evening. One of the lucky folks who voted won 2 tickets to the Taste as well!
We've been working on auction, both live and silent and we have some fabulous prizes! Check this out:
If you have a young daughter, under 16, then this could be the best birthday present ever! How about your daughter spending a day with three of her friends and Miss North Carolina USA, Nadia Shirin Moffett having the ultimate spa at Simply Sassy? Mani, Pedi, mini-glam makeover! Wish I was 12 again, I would have loved this!
We have a Taste of the NBA package also with Josh Howard, Forward for the Washington Wizards and graduate of Glenn High and Wake Forest University! Have some up close and personal time with Josh and 8 of your best friends (10 total) at the Piedmont Club in a private room! Add in a signed ball and a signed pair of Josh's shoes and you've got quite the NBA package!
There are plenty more great packages like this so make sure you're around about 6:15 at the Taste to bid feverishly!
The 136th Running of the Kentucky Derby!The top five horses as it stands today are Lookin at Lucky (7/2 odds), Sidney’s Candy (6/1), Awesome Act (9/1), Ice Box (10/1), and Devil May Care (12/1).
Noble’s Promise (18/1), Super Saver (14/1), Line of David (20/1), Stately Victor (20/1), American Lion (25/1), Dean’s Kitten (35/1), Make Music for Me (45/1), Paddy O’Prado (30/1), Conveyance (25/1), Jackson Bend (28/1), Mission Impazible (15/1), Discreetly Mine (45/1), Dublin (16/1), Backtalk (50/1), and Homeboykris (45/1)round out the hopefuls.
Considering our food theme at the Taste of the Town, I think Sidney's Candy and Ice Box may have a chance but what do I know?

Fevered Pitch!
How do you put together a terrific event where everyone wins? Well first you have to start with a 105 year old agency; that would be Family Services, Inc. Then you add succulent food from 21 fabulous Winston-Salem area restaurants, and a lively Blues and Bluegrass band, which would be the Twin City Buskers.
Stir in games and raffle prizes anyone would want to win including a 47" LG brand 1080p LCD HDTV with 240 Hz processing with LG brand Blu-ray Disc Player for first prize, Apple iPad with Wi-Fi 16GB for second prize and The Flip Ultra camcorder for third prize!
Stir in a cash bar, Live auction with terrific packages to bid feverishly on such as a fabulous dinner at Milner's American Southern with Robert Moody, Winston-Salem Symphony Music Director! There are lots more packages like that as well.
The silent auction has a wide assortment of items you could even buy for your Mom or wife for upcoming Mother's Day (May 9th).
But nothing caps off an evening like watching the Kentucky Derby broadcast live on two giant screens! The room explodes during one of the most exciting minutes in the world of sports! No one can resist the temptation to scream!
And everyone wins because all proceeds go to the programs of Family Services, Inc. Whether it is the services provided to domestic violence and sexual assault victims, the counseling services provided to every age, the adoption services or the 499 3,4, and 5 year olds in the Head Start Program. Everyone wins, especially our community!
If you absolutely cannot come, please come by the office and get some raffle tickets for only $10 each! You can buy them at the office at 1200 S. Broad St. up until 1pm on Friday, April 30th and then at the event of course.
More tomorrow!

More fabulous restaurants!
This has been quite a week in preparation for Taste of the Town! Our committee expanded this week from Mike Turner, me, Delaine Weddle and Lamaya Williams. We added Lloyd Leonard, Laura Weston, Lori Ore, Tony Kirk and Linda Bellotto!
The live auction is coming along really well. We have a dynamite package for someone with a daughter or favorite niece! Can you imagine getting a manicure, pedicure, facial and all the works with Miss North Carolina, Nadia Moffett? I think that would be the perfect birthday!
On the other end of the spectrum, there's a package featuring Josh Howard, Forward for the Washington Wizards and former Deamon Deacon! Wait til you hear all about that one!
I am particularly excited today because I received confirmation on 4 new restaurants!
Souphab down at Downtown Thai & Sushi as well as his new restaurant Soup, Vietnamese Pho has committed both restaurants to come this year! He'll be serving Green Curry, Sushi and Pho (soup)from the two booths! I can't wait!
I also signed up Senor Bravo who opened up just a few months ago where South by Southwest used to be on Marshall Street. Sal Bravo, the owner, is excited and has some dynamite ideas about what he wants to bring. Of the things he was considering were fish tacos, a chicken dish, a pork dish and I don't know what all else! Needless to say, he's excited to be attending this year!
I just had a call from Betty Ashby of Big Shotz saying they will definitely be joining us this year! I'm so excited! I know they'll make a grand statement; I can't wait to hear what they're bringing. More on that later!
Wow, everyone had better wear their loose fitting pants to the Taste this year. I have a feeling we will all be really full when all is done.
More news; Austin Caviness, Meteorologist from the WXII morning show has agreed to be our live auctioneer again this year and we have signed up Scott Abdul-Salaam, a dear friend of the agency. You'll love him!
We have live music this year with the Twin City Buskers! They play R&B as well as some bluegrass and are quite talented. Their members are Po' Heath Combs, Ironman John "Hootie" Hoots, Jr., and Old Tom Rucker. Listening to their CD reminded me of a little "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?", one of my favorites! I'm really looking forward to their music! I'll attempt to post a picture soon.
Try to get out to one of our restaurants for a Mint Julep and vote here on the blog. At the top, click the picture of the Mint Julep and it'll take you to the voting space.
We are so excited that you're joining us this year for the Taste and we know that you will have a fabulous time! More this weekend!

Derby, Mint Julep Contest, and Restaurant Update..
It looks like the field of horses for the Derby is really wide at this point. But currently the odds are favoring Eskendereya 3-1, Lookin at Lucky 9-2, and Sidneys Candy 9-2. More on this later; I'll keep you posted.
Speaking of odds, I had my very first Mint Julep last night. I'm not saying where I had it but it was really good. I never pictured myself as a bourbon drinker. Mint and a little simple syrup makes it taste much better (to me). We have more contenders for Best Mint Julep now; they are:
Carrabba's Italian Grill
First Street Draught House
Foothill's Brewing Co.
Jimmy's Seafood & Oyster Bar
Meridian Restaurant
NOMA
The Old Fourth Street Filling Station
Village Tavern on Hanes Mall Blvd.
Get out and order a Mint Julep, then come to the blog and vote. Click on the picture of the Mint Julep and it'll take you straight to the ballot where you'll vote for your favorite. One vote per email address...don't forget!
The restaurants are still signing up! Jimmy's Seafood & Oyster Bar will once again grace us with their presence. They always do a wonderful job with the seafood at Taste of the Town. Our friend Kenya Thorton (who happens to work here at Family Services and at Jimmy's) will probably be at the booth once again this year. We really look forward to what they have in store! Many thanks to Jimmy's. And go check out their Mint Julep!
Yesterday I was excited to hear Foothills Brewing Co. would also be at Taste of the Town! They have been so devoted and have done such a wonderful job at this event. We can't thank them enough! They're a contender in the Mint Julep contest as well!
I also just added First Street Draught House to the restaurants coming May 1st and to the Mint Julep contest list! First Street has terrific food and is one of the places in town I've been going to forever. Always great quality and terrific service. I can't wait to see them at Taste!
We're feverishly working on the live auction! Austin Caviness has agreed to be our auctioneer again this year. We always love having Austin on stage...what a natural! We have already put together an NBA package and a NASCAR package with many more great things in the works!
Tickets are currently on sale at Lowes Foods locations, at their Customer Service desk for $25. You can also stop by Family Services to get tickets or go to our website, www.fsifamily.org or straight to www.brownpapertickets.com. Tickets are $30 at the door, kids 6-12 are $10 and under 6 are free.
