A Taste of Charleston.

Please find the details of Taste of Charleston which I have cut and pasted from the WSAZ web site. This sounds like it is going to be a fun event.

Welcome to the 2006 WSAZ TASTE of Charleston, the Gourmet Event of the Sternwheel Regatta Festival.

2006 is our 26th year and it has been very well received by the Charleston area community, drawing an average of 20,000 attendees over the two days of the event.
This year we have MOVED THE TASTE to the weekend prior to Labor Day, August 26th and 27th, in the Charleston Civic Center (noon to 6:00PM each day) to avoid conflict with the Marshall-WVU football game being played in Morgantown , Saturday September 2nd. The weekend prior to Labor Day has been our primary weekend for the event for most of our 26 years so we don't envision anything but a positive impact on attendance so “Save that Date!”

If you are a restaurant and you would like more information on how you can participate, click on this Restaurant Sign-up link.

You and your whole family are invited to join us for this fun, traditional event. Save that date, Saturday and Sunday August 26th and 27th, noon until 6:00PM each day in the Charleston Civic Center .

Remember, your unused food tickets can be placed in donation boxes around the Civic Center dining area. The value of these tickets benefits the WSAZ Children’s Charities. COME HUNGRY!
