Bill Sipos to Receive Recovery Center’s Lifetime Achievement Award
June 8, 2013 by The Catskill Chronicle
MONTICELLO, NY (June 8, 2013) – Local icon, Bill Sipos, owner of Mr. Willy’s Restaurant, will be the subject of a “roast” slated to be held at his dining establishment, on Friday, June 28 beginning at 6:00 p.m.
Sipos will be the recipient of Recovery Center’s Lifetime Achievement Award, in recognition of his years of service and commitment to improving the lives of Sullivan County’s youth. To date, he continues to work diligently on the boards of CASA and Community Unity.
Proceeds for the Roast will benefit two Recovery Center summer camp programs: Sunshine Getaway for youth ages 13-17; and Safe Summer Camp for youth ages seven to 12. Last year, 51 at-risk campers were able to attend a full week of camp through both programs. Unfortunately, numerous applicants were not able to go due to lack of funding. This year, the anticipated goal is to give similar camping experiences to 100 youth in total.
“I am honored to be the recipient of this award,” said Sipos. “Most importantly, I am proud to be able to play a role in raising funds to sponsor youth who otherwise could not possibly afford to attend these worthwhile programs that help instill the core values they need to become productive members of the community.”
Attendees at this year’s Roast will be afforded a fun-filled evening, complete with some ribaldry and good-natured ribbing of the guest of honor. Greg Goldstein will serve as the event’s Master of Ceremonies, assisted by Gordon MacAdam. Party Master’s Perry Gips will provide musical entertainment and document the evening’s activities on video. Other highlights include: indoor/outdoor seating; enjoyment of the open fire pit; a silent auction and more.
Seating at the event is $65 per person, with discounts available for tables of 10. Additionally, journal ad submissions are currently being accepted, as are donations. For more information, contact Loretta Pearson, at 845-794-8080, ext. 110. Donations may be mailed to Mr. Willy’s Restaurant, 3695 Route 42, Forestburgh Road, Monticello, NY, 12701.
