Join us for evening of fun, celebration and tasty treats at our signature fundraising event Taste of Tri-Lakes Cares! This ticketed event will feature local restaurants and other food related businesses showing off their creativity and will be extra special as we celebrate our 40-year anniversary. Modeled after the Food Network's television show "Chopped", chefs from local restaurants, catering companies, food trucks and other food related businesses will test their skills and create small bites for sampling based on ingredients from our pantry. These are the same ingredients that our clients choose when "shopping" in our Market.
While you enjoy sampling and mingling, you will have the opportunity to play games which highlight a program or service that Tri-Lakes Cares provides in our local community - "Pin the Bandage on the Thumb" to highlight the Neighborhood Nurse Center or "Balance Beam" to showcase the STABLe program (curious? Attend and learn more!).
Midway through the event, we'll break for a short program to share stories of people impacted by the help provided by Tri-Lakes Cares and supported by you. We'll also offer a vision for our future plans - where will we go for the next 40 years? You will be given an opportunity to make a donation at that time.
At the close of the evening, you'll be able to cast your vote for your favorite restaurant creation - the winning chef will get bragging rights for a year! In 2022 it was Arlene's Beans and in 2023 it was O'Malley's!
