Public officials to be celebrity servers

Willoughby Hills Mayor Robert Weger told me today that he and City Council President Kevin Malecek are looking forward to taking part in the United Way of Lake County’s annual Celebrity Server Luncheon next week.

Instead of serving up legislation for the city, the public officials will serve up entrees to those who attend — all in an effort to raise money for those in need in Lake County.

Each server is asked to recruit at least a table of 10 to attend, and during the luncheon, the local celebrities will do their best to earn as many tips as possible. All the money raised goes to UWLC, which as of last week, was still trying to reach their goal for the 2008 campaign.

The luncheon will be held on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, at Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites LaMalfa, 5785 Heisley Road, Mentor. More than 800 attendees took part in the luncheon last year, according to UWLC’s Web site.
