“Pirates in the Park,” will be the theme for this year’s Taste of Daviess County. This community social event is hosted by the Daviess County Family YMCA and is now in its 16th year.

The social event includes a variety of foods from local chefs, grocers and restaurants. Ticket buyers get the opportunity to sample the foods that each business has chosen to prepare.
As in years past, food selections will include new items, long time favorites, specialty items and creative displays. The YMCA has once again partnered with the youth at the Power House and the Washington High School NJROTC to help serve at the event.

Prizes have been donated by area businesses.
Each ticket holder will receive a fortune cookie which might reveal winners of the door prizes, including baskets, floral arrangements, pool parties and many more gifts.
