Penobscot School in Rockland will host an authentic Guatemalan Meal to benefit Team Midcoast Interact at 6 p.m. on Thursday, January 14th. Team MidCoast Interact will travel to Safe Passage in Guatemala City, Guatemala from February 26 through March 6, 2016 to assist at-risk families who live in some of Guatemala’s most challenging environments.

Local foodie, Louise MacLellan-Ruf, will pair with Team MidCoast Interact to prepare this authentic meal. On the menu for the evening is a typical Guatemalan dish, chicken pepian, along with rice with black beans, salad, bread, flan and beverage.

Attendees may bid on two baskets filled with goods donated by local businesses. Drawings for two larger prizes will also be held.  These include an original painting, “Rockport Roofline” by local artist, Tim Lawson, and a necklace by local jewelry designer, Etienne Perret.
