Exeter football to present second annual ‘Tastefully Berks’ event

- From Christa McCusker Exeter football Parents Club

Exeter Football Parents Club is comprised of an allvolunte­er staff with an executive board of directors and committee heads. The club is excited to announce their Second Annual event that couples both fundraisin­g for the Exeter Scholastic Football Program and the marketing of local restaurant­s and eateries.

This year’s, “Tastefully Berks” event is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 23, from 6 to 8 p.m.

Tastefully Berks will be a celebratio­n of food from across Berks County. Held in the Exeter Township High School cafeteria, the community is invited to enjoy samplings from a wide variety of local vendors.

Pre-sale tickets are being sold by all Exeter football players. Prices, if purchased ahead, will be $20 for adults and $10 for children under 10-years-old. Tickets purchased at the door will be $25 for adults and $10 for children.

“The Parents Club saw this event as such an amazing opportunit­y to bring the community together to support local business, our Football sponsors and our very own Exeter Football program. We are hopeful that many in Exeter will decide to bring the family out to meet the team and enjoy some local food. Ticket holders really do have a unique opportunit­y to sample dishes from a growing list of over 20 local eateries,” stated Matt Stout, Exeter Football Parents Club President.

He continues, “It seems as though our restaurant participan­ts are as excited to share their food as our ticket holders are to sample it!”

Each participat­ing restaurant will be at the event, serving up a signature dish that is specific to their restaurant or location. Ticket holders may receive some special restaurant offers and will also have an opportunit­y purchase the winning ticket for the grand prize raffle — a basket containing over $200 from various restaurant­s and eateries around Berks County.

Participat­ing restaurant­s include Andy Peppers, Applebees, Bixler’s Lodge, Boscov’s Ala Carte Catering, Café Sweet Street, Chick-fil-A, China Penn, Clover Farms, Dunkin Donuts, Espositos, Francesca’s Pizza & Restaurant, Jakes of Mount Penn, Klingers on Carsonia, Libery Ale House & Liberty Tap Room, Moe’s Southwest Grill, Red Robin and Red Robin Catering, Subway, Sweet Surprises and Sweet Ride Ice Cream.
