Openings remain for five businesses to participate in “Taste of Christmas,” an annual event where area residents visit locations to try and vote for their favorite foods.
The event – scheduled for Nov. 29 – has five categories remaining to be sponsored by businesses: Appetizers, bread/rolls, cobblers, cupcakes/cakes and pie.
For the event, local businesses sponsor a category to host and residents enter food items. Residents visit locations and vote for their favorite in each category. Winners are determined by top votes. There is no cost.
Those wishing to enter the contest must bring their food item to the appropriate location before 10 a.m. Participants have from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to sample the treats and vote.
Businesses interested in participating can text Carter at 417-260-4674 until Friday, Nov. 7. Locations will be announced later.
