The 8th grade girls' volleyball team from St. Al's/St. Pat's School "served" up a delicious meal at the Ronald McDonald House in Lincoln Park on October 28. Ronald McDonald House is an organization that provides a home-away-from-home for families who need to stay close to their hospitalized children. With the expert help and guidance from Food Network Celebrity Chef Paul Young (Julie B.'s cousin), the Celtics started off their meal with a spring mix salad with freshly made herb vinaigrette. The main menu included Chicken Vesuvio with Roasted Potatoes, Sloppy Joes, and Broccoli with red pepper. To end off the meal, the girls made festive Halloween cupcakes. The team received many compliments on their beautifully prepared and scrumptious meal.
