Last Chance: Free Voice Consultation on Wednesday; Pre-Order Your Firehouse Ribs

This week we encourage anyone with voice troubles to partake of this free consultation with Phelps' experts, and anyone at all to eat ribs.

• Singers with voice problems, and anyone else with vocal difficulties (hoarseness, breathiness, fatigue, strain, pain) is welcome to participate in a free online voice consultation this week. In honor of World Voice Day (yes, it exists, and it's April 14), on April 11 from 12 to 2 p.m., Dr. Craig Zalvan, a laryngologist at along with two voice rehabilitation specialists, will host free consultations via Skype. Participation requires having a Skype account and a computer with a camera or webcam. Calls on April 11 can be placed beginning at 12 noon by placing a Skype call to thephelpsvoiceteam. If the line is busy, the caller will receive a Skype text message and will be called back. Each call is limited to five minutes. For more information, contact the Institute for Voice and Swallowing Disorders at 914-366-3636.

• It's the famous “dry rub” rib sale at the corner of Cortlandt and Cedar streets on Saturday, April 14 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., but you should use this opportunity to pre-order: call 914-332-0710. Enjoy!
