Celebrate 31 Years of Flavor at the Rotary Club’s Annual Event

The Rotary Club of Arcata Sunrise is set to host its 31st annual “Taste of the Holidays” on November 20, 2023, from 17:00 to 20:00 at the Arcata Community Center, located at 321 Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway. This much-anticipated event invites the community to indulge in a variety of local culinary delights and beverages, showcasing the region’s rich gastronomic culture.

Guests will have the opportunity to sample offerings from dozens of local food and beverage producers, ranging from artisanal bites to an impressive selection of local wines, craft beers, and spirits. In addition to the tastings, the evening will feature Dutch and silent auctions, providing attendees with a chance to bid on unique items while supporting a good cause.

In the spirit of community and generosity, attendees are encouraged to bring an unwrapped toy for the Toys for Tots initiative. By doing so, they will receive a ticket for a special prize, further enhancing the festive atmosphere of the evening.

Tickets for the event are priced at $45 per person, which includes two drink tickets for wine, beer, or spirit tastings. Additional beverage tickets will be available for purchase, alongside complimentary non-alcoholic options. The event is designed for guests aged 16 and older, making it a welcoming occasion for both individuals and families.

Proceeds from “Taste of the Holidays” will support the Rotary Club of Arcata Sunrise in its various local and global service projects. This commitment to service reinforces the club’s mission to enhance the community and provide assistance where it is most needed.

Tickets can be purchased now at www.ArcataSunrise.org and will also be available at the door on the day of the event. Given the popularity of this annual celebration, it is advisable for interested attendees to secure their tickets in advance, as the event frequently sells out. Tickets are also available directly from any member of the Rotary Club of Arcata Sunrise.

This event not only highlights the culinary talents within the community but also fosters a spirit of giving and support for those in need, making it a significant occasion on the local calendar.
