“One of the great things about Capital Region BOCES is it gives you a foundation. It provides you with a foundation to really know what being a cook means. BOCES provides you the skills to not only conquer the kitchen but conquer the world,” said Jason Eksterowicz, Executive Chef of the New York Mets and a 2002 Culinary graduate from Schoharie.
