Valentine's Day Dance Catered by Award-Winning Charles Sally Charles Catering

 As if our annual Valentines Day dance didn’t bring enough delights, we have one more to add to this year’s event: Charles Sally Charles Catering will be donating some of their legendary food!  Dinner will be served, and PS 39 will benefit 100% from the sales. Suh-weet!


The dance takes place on Friday, February 7th at Camp Friendship (mark your calendars with a little heart).

On the menu: savory tarts, pasta salads and greens for adults.  Specifically for picky little eaters, PS39 mom Annie Gallo will be making her amazing Mac and Cheese if we say please. 

The catering connection is local: Co-owner Sally Krause is a PS 39 alum herself, and great aunt to Samantha and Alexa Goldfarb (yep, Jo’s kids). She’s also a soon-to-be grandma to a future 39er, due in March.



Brooklyn borough president Marty Markowitz recognized Sally’s catering company with the prestigious Brooklyn Bridge Award, being that the company has been the exclusive caterer to The Brooklyn Botanical Gardens since the 1980s (have you ever eaten at the Terrace Café at the Gardens? That belongs to Charles Sally Charles!).

Sadly, Sally kept the business going strong while her husband and partner, Charles, fought a long-term battle with Parkinson’s Disease.

Charles Sally Charles Catering received a Zagat rating of 25. All restaurant fanatics know that this is pretty awesome.

At PS 39 last year, Sally spoke at our Grandparents/VIP Day (see the photos). She shared her experiences of growing up in Brooklyn (which included listening to the radio coverage of the Brooklyn Dodgers playing the final game of The World Series in class, with her teacher!).  

Be sure to send your love to Sally at our upcoming Valentines Day dance (and at the Botanical Gardens), and check out her website here.
