PROGRAM AREA \ COURSE OF STUDY MARCH 8, 2022 25th Annual Int’l Chefs Night Out Fantastic Food and Fundraiser for the Kids in Ocean County, New Jersey 25th Annual Int’l Chefs Night Out Fantastic Food and Fundraiser for the Kids in Ocean County, New Jersey Shawn Michaels, WOBM MARCH 8, 2022 It was a fun night of food and fundraising in Lacey Township on Monday night at the 25th Annual International Chefs Night Out. This year hosted at the beautiful Lacey Elks Lodge on Beach Avenue in Lacey. The Lacey Elks did a fantastic job providing their building for this year's event. A nice crowd attended the 25th annual event and there was lots of food from all over Ocean County, including the culinary students at Ocean County Vocational-Technical School. Sue Moll and I were glad to represent 92.7 WOBM and Townsquare Media at this year's event, the first in two years due to the pandemic and it was great to see friends from the community, local businesses, and the schools. There were lots of foods to sample. Everything from starters to dessert and everything in between. So many different types of foods. All the vendors did a fantastic job and everyone enjoyed the night. This event is always unique because each year there are different types of foods and games to play. After eating folks were entertained with a fun gift auction with lots of cool prizes and of course proceeds going to the schools of OCVTS. Take a look at our Mega-Photo Gallery and see some of the fun from Monday night here in Ocean County. Already looking forward to the 26th edition next year!

ABOUT OCVTS The Ocean County Vocational Technical School offers career majors in over 30 areas for students going on to college or directly to the world of work. OCVTS works hand-in-hand with sending schools to provide a complete education for high school students. Students may attend during their junior and senior year, as well as post graduate. The students attend “home school” for half a day and are transported to the vocational center for the other half. Ties are maintained with the home school, where they pursue academic classes, take part in sports or other extracurricular activities, and graduate. School counseling services are jointly provided by the vocational school and the home district. Students receive a certificate from OCVTS, as well as a high school diploma from their home school.
