Regatta considers a move, Le Bec-Fin readies for new ownership

    Good morning, Feeders!

    Our reporters today are looking into changes at some local institutions.

    Peter Crimmins is heading to Le Bec-Fin this afternoon as the restaurant prepares to shut its doors and eventually re-open with new owners and a new look.
    And Lizz Fiedler is checking on the status on Schuylkill River Regatta events that may make a move. She’ll get to the bottom of this story that involves the condition of the Schuylkill banks.

    Peter will also get us a preview of tonight’s Sixers game, during which fans will get a piece of the court Wilt Chamberlan scored 100 points on. We’ll look back at Chamberlain’s role with the team.
