Opinion: Taste of our Towns, a huge success!

To the editor:

The Taste of Our Towns Event on September 16th, benefiting Turning Point, was a huge success! We want to thank all of the sponsors, donors, volunteers and food vendors who participated and made this a night to remember.

Local restaurants and food vendors - including Cervelli Farms, Charlie’s Place, CoHogs LLC, Costa’s Kitchen, GLO Barbeque, Mezza Luna, Oxford Creamery, Quahog Republic, Shipyard Galley, Stomping Grounds, Turk’s Seafood, Uncle Jon’s Coffee and Wareham House of Pizza - provided absolutely amazingly delicious dishes.

Financial contributors included Cafe Soleil, Kool Kone, Krua Thai/Golden Bamboo and Hiller Co. Chrysler Jeep Ram. Wareham/New Bedford Elks Lodge #73 provided our event venue, as well as continued support to Turning Point throughout the year. Many, many local merchants and volunteers donated gift cards and baskets for our raffle. In addition, participants enjoyed fabulous music from Frank Noonan/The Southcoast Musicians.

We are so grateful for all of the amazing community support. The funds raised at this event will go directly to helping the homeless and housing insecure in our area. We hope to see you all again at next year’s Taste of Our Towns!!!

Sincerely,
