The Independent Newspaper was a proud sponsor of this year's Love Bites event to benefit Katy's Courage in memory of Katy Stewart and The Scarlett Fund in honor of Scarlett James at The Muses in Southampton on Saturday night. The multi-chef event honored Stephen Long, president of Children's Museum of the East End (CMEE), Nina Landi, a teacher at Sag Harbor Elementary School, and Dr. Diane Reidy-Lagunes, the co-director of the Hemotology/Oncology Fellowship Program at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Event chairs were Joe Luppi and Denise Burke O'Brien with honorary chairs Southampton Mayor Mark and Marianne Epley. The event hosted an open bar and chef selections from over 30 restaurants including Chef Chairperson Peter Ambrose of Endless Summer Catering. The event raised over $50,000 for the charities.
