Description
Taste of Brookings – Annual Celebration
Thursday, April 2 | Dacotah Bank Center
Join us for an evening of celebration, connection, and great food at our Annual Celebration featuring the beloved Taste of Brookings experience. This year’s event will also mark an exciting milestone as we introduce the newly consolidated organization: the Brookings Regional Growth Alliance.
Enjoy a delicious small plates and dessert experience featuring dishes from talented local chefs and restaurants while celebrating the past year’s successes and looking ahead to the future of our community.
The evening begins at 5:00 PM with a social hour, where guests can enjoy one complimentary drink (cash bar available) and sample a variety of themed entrées and desserts from participating restaurants throughout the room. Be sure to cast your vote for the People’s Choice Award, while a panel of judges selects the winners of the Golden Fork and Silver Spoon awards.
At 6:30 PM, our program will reflect on the accomplishments of the Brookings Area Chamber of Commerce, Brookings Economic Development Corporation, Downtown Brookings, and Visit Brookings, while looking ahead to the goals and opportunities of the newly formed Brookings Regional Growth Alliance. We will also recognize outstanding individuals and celebrate our Leadership Brookings graduates.
We look forward to celebrating with you!
