LeRoy family fights to retain right to operate Tavern on the Green

Following in the path blazed by the successful "Save the Plaza" campaign of 2005, the owners of Tavern on the Green have launched "Keep Tavern on the Green." The campaign includes giving bracelets, pins, and yo-yos to customers, and owner Jennifer LeRoy has created a website for patrons to post their fondest memories of the restaurant and recognize the hardworking men and women who make the restaurant so special. The campaign offers a forum for New Yorkers to express how special the restaurant is to them.
