Sister Swing is scheduled to appear again this year at the Taste of Carmichael event.

Carmichael – It’s that time again to mark your calendar for the 10th annual Taste of Carmichael. Join the Carmichael Kiwanis Club on Saturday, May 19th as they roll out the best of what Carmichael has to offer.

The “Taste” runs from 4:30 to 8 PM at Carmichael’s La Sierra Community Center at 5325 Engle Road.

You will find plenty to do all afternoon and evening as you sample from dozens of Carmichael’s American and Ethnic restaurants, bakeries and markets.

Wineries from the local valley and foothills will be on hand to pour you their latest vintages. And while this is all going on, you will be entertained by live music from groups such as Vintage Fare, Sister Swing and the award winning Rio Jazz Band, and you will want to check out the variety of vintage and classic autos on display.

Visit any of the number of booths and learn about local businesses and nonprofit groups and see the designs of local and regional artists! The Taste of Carmichael also features a number of Raffles and a Silent Auction so you are sure to bring home a bargain.

Tickets for this year’s festivities are $35.00 and may be purchased at the door or in advance by contacting George White at 916-481-0196. Over the years your participation in the Taste of Carmichael has helped the Carmichael Kiwanis Foundation’s charities such as the Kiwanis Family House and other local community projects. So bring your appetite and a friend or two, and join the others as you savor the best of local flavor…the Taste of Carmichael!
