The Lake Orion Lions Club and Lake Orion United Methodist Church (LOUMC) are sponsoring the Taste of the Town event on Feb. 25.
This year’s affair will feature food samples from local restaurants, a silent and live auction and live music.
Lockhart’s BBQ, Passport Pizza, Valentino’s, Jersey Mike’s Subs, Achatz Handmade Pie Co. and Palace Grill will be among many area restaurants at Taste of the Town.
Clarkston-based variety band Sail will perform at the event.
This year’s Taste of the Town also has several auction items up for grabs. Among the prizes are a vacation package to Disney World, a Tiffany bowl, a round of golf at Indianwood Golf Course, a table and chair set and a football signed by Jason Hanson.
Proceeds from the event help the LOUMC and the Lion’s Club to fund their community support efforts.
“It’s all staying here in the community,” said Lion’s Club member Bob Erickson.
The LOUMC provides Monday Meals to members of the community, while the Lion’s help the community by providing eyeglasses, hearing aids and hosting community events for those with special needs.
Tickets for Taste of the Town are $40 per person or $75 per couple. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the event is at Kings Court Castle at Canterbury Village at 2336 Joslyn Ct.
