Supper will be served at 6:30 p.m. and speakers will begin at 7 p.m. Guest speakers include: State Treasurer Curtis Loftis; Comptroller General Richard Eckstrom; Pat McKinney, a candidate for lieutenant governor; Sally Atwater, a candidate for superintendent of education; and Republican National Committee representative Hope Walker. The public is invited.
DEMOCRATIC PARTY MEETING — more country than rock. The Blue Plantation Band is a laid back bluegrass sound, and then the Blue Dogs are Southern country rock, sort of a Charleston feel to it.” The Taste is held to benefit the Clarendon Chamber of Commerce and Weldon Auditorium. “We are hoping for a good crowd,” Prothro said. “We’ve never done it in conjunction with a concert, which obviously increases
our costs a little bit, but at the same time it’s an extra draw as well.” He said he doesn’t expect the event to be “too formal.” “It’s very laid back,” he said. “Bring chairs. Bring a tailgate mentality. If you want to, bring a tent, pop it up and come for the day.” Prothro said drinks are included with the ticket, and coolers will not be allowed in.

THE TASTE, peel-and-eat shrimp,” said event co-chairman Pro Prothro. While the event has been at Weldon for a few years, Prothro said it will be different this year. “We are setting it more like an outdoor tailgate and concert instead of like a feeding extravaganza as we have in the past,” he said. “It will be outdoor cooks only, no indoor stuff.” Title sponsor the Bank of Clarendon along with the Clarendon County Chamber of Commerce and Weldon Auditorium are behind the Taste, which organizers call a day of “homegrown music, food and fun.” Three bands are booked to provide entertainment. Gracious Day out of Charleston takes the stage at 2 p.m., the Blue Plantation Band out of Edisto will entertain the crowd at 4 p.m., and the Blue Dogs, also out of Charleston, are set for 6 p.m. “Gracious Day is sort of a Southern country rock,” Prothro said. “They got a really good, pure type of sound, ‘countryesque’ rock
