Upcoming Events
While it looks like we are having a battle, Clermont and Staatsburgh are really great friends! Especially since we share so much Livingston family history! Here is a not-too-messy food fight your kids can enjoy in July, with a chance to win some chef swag and online acclaim!
We are excited that you’re going to enter our contest and make a “faux food” culinary concoction! The
goal of this contest is to have fun and be as imaginative as you want to be. You can make something
that people could actually eat, something you and your family would LOVE to eat, or even something
your family would never let you eat in real life!
You can make your faux (fake) culinary creation using any medium you want: drawing, painting,
sculpture, photo … you name it! Just send us a cool picture of your masterpiece, and fill out the form
below, to enter the contest. We can’t wait to see your creation!
