(High Point, NC) – Taste of the Town, Hospice of the Piedmont’s signature fundraiser, is celebrating its 38th annual event on Tuesday, August 18 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Trust Point, located at 301 N. Elm St., High Point. Each year, this event brings together local food, beverage and catering vendors for a fun, family-friendly food tasting event in support of local hospice and bereavement services.
Beginning August 3, Taste of the Town tickets will be available online (click here for more info!) and in person at Hospice of the Piedmont’s administrative office, located at 1801 Westchester Drive, High Point, during normal business hours, M-F, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Entry tickets are $15 each and food “taste” tickets are $1 each. Children under six enter the event for free. Tickets will also be available the night of the event at the Main Box Office (Gatewood Ave.) and VIP Parking Entrance (214 Lindsay St.). The Centerfield/Outfield Box Office (N. Elm St.) will not be selling tickets but will be open for advance ticket holders.
Proceeds from Taste of the Town help support programs for which the organization receives no reimbursement, like its grief counseling services, and hospice care for individuals who do not have insurance nor a way to pay unreimbursed costs of their care.
As a not-for-profit organization, Hospice of the Piedmont is mission-driven and prioritizes caring for those in need regardless of financial factors, which is why the community’s support for the organization through a special event like Taste of the Town is so important.
“Taste of the Town has been a success for many years due to the generous outpouring of our community’s support,” says Trent Cockerham, Chief Executive Officer of Hospice of the Piedmont. More than 20 local restaurants, caterers, and beverage vendors plan to serve their best dishes at the 38th annual event.
