The LM Lions teamed up with Mamaroneck’s Sedona Taphouse’s Mondays Dine Out for Charity in support of the Pediatric Cancer Foundation (PCF). Sedona dedicates a full month of Mondays throughout the year in support of local charities and service groups. For the month of February, Sedona raised $696, with an additional $1500 raised from related online donations. Combined with the Lions support, nearly $3,000 was raised for PCF.
