This Mother's day Smith Village hosted their annual Mother's Day Brunch, where residents and their families were invited to enjoy a gourmet meal as they celebrated the women in their lives. Chef Dave and sous chef Kara worked with the team to feature hand carved prime rib, stuffed chicken breast, salmon, a make your own omelet bar, a fresh crab and shrimp cocktail display, and a variety of homemade muffins, pastries, cookies, and desserts. Over the course of the day we welcomed over 400 guests into our community and we had a great time celebrating with our resident's and their families. We were happy to see everyone come together to put out an exceptional event and we can't wait to do it again next year!
