Rossiter Circle Dinner 2021

Despite a day of heavy rain, we had a terrific turnout at this year’s Rossiter Circle Dinner on September 5, 2021 with more than 125 guests joining us under a tented sky at our new headquarters at 116 Christian Street adjacent to Macricostas Preserve.   

This annual event recognizes the generosity of Steep Rock’s donors families at $5,000 and above who fund the majority of our operating budget each year.  

Special thanks to Ericson Insurance Advisors for sponsoring the Cocktail Party;  to Community Table for their flawless delivery of an exceptional  menu curated by Chef Christian Hunter;  to Rocky Barry for photography and videography; to David Grausman for outstanding music; to Eileen Smith Events for organizing; and to Steep Rock’s Development Committee, without whom this marvelous event would not have happened:  Michael Lloyd (Chair), Kathy Guttman,  Audrey Meyer, Ali Rubler, Kirsten Feldman, Wilson Henley, Alan Mnuchin, Sara Carter, Linda Allard, John Herrmann, Robert Micheletto, Ray Reich, Joanna Seitz and Kasia Smith.
