10th Anniversary Event!

The 10th annual A Taste of Cherokee will be held Thursday, March 3rd, 2011 from 5:30pm - 8:00pm at the Broad River Electric Co-operative, 811 Hamrick Street, Gaffney.

Local businesses, organizations, and individuals sponsor tables at A Taste of Cherokee providing showcase-quality foods and drinks. Participants are given the opportunity to sample food and obtain information regarding the respective table sponsors. Table sponsors are the primary draw to this event. The table sponsors compete against each other to win the coveted 1st place trophy. This competition creates exceptionally creative table displays including costumes, props, and even skits!

New for the 10th Anniversary, A Taste of Cherokee, is the "Golden Fork" award. Ticketed participants will be given a chance to vote on their favorite food offering via secret ballots.

Each table sponsor is responsible for setting up (including all tables) and breaking down their displays and providing non-packaged food and/or drinks or other food related sample items for 250+ people at no charge to the participants. Table spaces will be assigned on a first come first served basis, and limited to 45 spots. Please respond early for the best table space selection. There is no fee to be a table sponsor.

Financial sponsorship opportunities are available for any business, group or individual who would like their name associated with this highly successful event. For more information please contact the American Red Cross at 864-489-6066.
