🚨EVENT UPDATE:

Due to the expected impacts of Tropical Storm Helene, we have made the decision to reschedule the Taste of Sumter event, which was originally planned for this Thursday, September 26th.

After receiving the latest weather briefing, it has become clear that significant wind and rainfall are expected across Georgia on Thursday and Friday. For the safety of our vendors, participants, and attendees, we believe it is in everyone's best interest to reschedule the event.

The new date for the Taste of Sumter will be Tuesday, October 8th.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding. We look forward to seeing you on October 8th for a fantastic event!

Stay safe!
