"Taste of" includes not only food but a sampling of things in that area. It can be non-perishable food, local craftsman's items, or any small item that is unique to your area. The basket that receives the most votes (in terms of raffle tickets), the group submitting that basket will receive $100.00 donation. The second place basket's group will receive $50.00 donation. A fun way to tell others about your area and maybe raise some money for your group. Will we update the entries here so you can see the country!!
