WPCNR EAST ENDER. From the Slater Center. January 4, 2004: In the wake of the cancellation of the Martin Luther King Breakfast at the Westchester County Center, due to lack of corporate support, The Thomas H. Slater Center will commemorate the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. at it's 12th Annual Unity Breakfast on Monday, January 17, 2005, as usual thanks to the continued support of the Crowne Plaza Hotel.
Charlie Booth, Executive Director of The Slater Center, said the breakfast will be held for the thirteenth straight year thanks to the generous support of The Crowne Plaza Hotel (White Plains only real hotel), which only charges the Center $11 a person for the gratuities for the personnel serving the breakfast. "Without their generous support over the years, we could not hold such an event," Booth told WPCNR, saying the Crowne Plaza supplies all the food on the house.
The breakfast will be held at the Crowne Plaza, 66 Hale Avenue, White Plains, New York. The Honorable Michael Morgan, District Court Judge for the 10th Judicial District, Raleigh, North Carolina, will deliver the keynote address.
Reservations are $40.00 per person and $400 for a table of ten. For more information or to make a reservation, please call 914-948-6211.
