Savory Sampling, Clarion County’s Ultimate Taste Test is scheduled for Monday, May 1st, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Clarion Mall.
Bring your appetite and enjoy an evening of fun, food, and friends while raising money to support United Way’s work in Clarion County.
A Super Sampler Raffle features gift certificates for all of the businesses participating, a week’s stay in Williamsburg, VA, Brighton jewelry, a Yeti Cooler prize pack, an outdoor bench, and many more great prizes.
The Super Sweet Silent Auction (it will be the best bake sale you ever see) is new this year. High bidders will go home with a unique delectable dessert and the person that donated the highest-earning dessert will get a trophy and prize pack along with bragging rights for a year.
“Savory Sampling began in 2010 and quickly became one of United Way’s best fundraisers,” said Melissa Fulton, United Way’s Executive Director. “Our programs are growing so the need to increase our fundraising efforts must grow too. The Clarion County Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, our Neighbor Aid Fund, and our investments in our Partner Agencies’ work are contingent on United Way having the funding available.”
“These restaurants, breweries, wineries, and all the participants go all out for Savory Sampling. We had 2 new restaurants ask to join this year, A & M Family restaurant from Brookville and County Seat, a Main Street favorite. We are also welcoming back all of last year’s participants. Those that come back year after year speaks volumes about the event. The restaurants love it, the guests love it, and United Way loves the support.”
