Sip and Savor

IN this Issue

Warning…this is not your average taste event! The Greater St. Charles County Chamber of Commerce is excited to host the Annual Sip and Savor St. Charles County Taste Event. It’s the 14th year for the Sip and Savor, but so much is new you don’t want to miss it. In December 2011, the St. Peters and St. Charles Chambers of Commerce merged as a result of favorable votes from the memberships of each chamber. Lori Tainter, vice president of member services and new media coordinator, said after the merger chamber officials and board members wanted to grow the event. “This year we’ve moved Sip and Savor to 370 Lakeside Park in St. Peters,” she said. “It’s located near Hwy. 370 and Truman Road. Just take the Truman Road exit and head north over the levee to the park.” Tainter said guests will enjoy the light breeze at this outdoor event. Seating will be available under the pavilion, and tents will be available in case of rain. Sip and Savor is open to the public, and guests get it all for one price. A host of local restaurants and beverage distributors will be on hand, dishing and serving their finest food and drink. “We’ll spend the evening sipping wine or brews while sampling zesty barbecue, gourmet pizza, delicious pasta, decadent desserts and so much more,” Tainter said. “Try what you like or try it all!” Current vendors include: Chick-fil-A, Costco, Dino’s Pizza Italian Restaurant, Fazoli’s, Glazer’s Midwest, Joe’s Crab Shack, Kitaro Bistro of Japan, Krey Distributing, Laulie Cakes, Laszlo Corporation, Llywelyn’s Pub, Longhorn Steakhouse, Main Street Diner, Maui Wowi Hawaiian Smoothies & Coffees, Oak Tree Village Retirement Community,

Tickets are limited to 1200, and Tainter said advance tickets are $25, but only through June 16. Starting June 17, the price goes up to $30. Extra tickets (if any remain) will be sold at the door for $30 each. “This year we’re also offering a group ticket price of $20 per person for groups of 10 or more (tickets must be purchased together in advance),” she said. “This is a one-price admission for all food, bever-
