Charles City High School seniors Quinn McCarty and Thane Howlett joined Community Conversations to highlight the upcoming Comet Café dinner on Thursday, February 13 at the Youth Enrichment Center on the Floyd County Fairgrounds. The five-course meal — prepared and served by students in the school’s culinary program — will feature focaccia bread, Italian wedding soup, Caesar salad, Marry Me Chicken pasta, and angel food cake. The evening also includes live orchestra entertainment and a mocktail bar, making it a perfect Valentine’s date-night event. Students also explain how the Comet Café class works, giving culinary students hands-on, ServSafe-compliant experience planning and preparing meals for the community.

Tickets are $35 per person, with discounted table options available. The deadline to purchase tickets is February 4. For more information or to reserve your seats, contact Katie Mead at [email protected] or visit CharlesCitySchools.org.

Chris Berg

Chris was born in Webster City and raised in Charles City, which basically means he’s been corn‑fed and radio‑bred since day one. As a kid, he was always caught singing along to the radio — and while he’ll tell you he’s great at karaoke, let’s just say the audience’s ears often file a noise complaint. When he’s not busy butchering ‘80s power ballads, Chris enjoys starting overly ambitious home projects that rarely make it past the “great idea” stage. He lives in Charles City with his endlessly patient wife Vicki and their kids, Brynlee and Jaxon, who have already perfected the art of the eye‑roll every time Dad cracks another “dad joke.”
