It's all about love

Food and fun by the ocean at A Taste of Glynn

Scott Bedell is a smart man. And a good planner.
            This weekend marks his first wedding anniversary. Scott just called the offices of Glynn Community Crisis Center and ordered two tickets to A Taste of Glynn. He and his bride are coming to A Taste of Glynn as the first item on their anniversary trip agenda. What better way to celebrate than a trip from the couple’s home in Tampa to the glorious Golden Isles of Georgia? And what better way to kick off your anniversary weekend than to join other warm-hearted people at the beautiful King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort for the 12th annual A Taste of Glynn?
            Obviously, it is a wise move to try the very best fare that 26 local restaurants and caterers have to offer when you first arrive. That way, Mr. and Mrs. Bedell will be in the know about where they want to dine for the rest of their stay here. And if anyone needs a great anniversary gift idea, they need only to step into the renowned Delegal Room to pick up something special at the Silent Auction.  Dinners for two? Lovely his and hers watches? Autographed sports memorabilia from some of the world’s greatest golfers? Dazzling jewelry? Vacation packages for future special occasions? That’s a “yes” for all of the above, plus more.
            But there is another benefit to attending. It’s the incredible atmosphere of love and generosity that surrounds A Taste of Glynn. A year of planning goes into the party. Local companies like presenting sponsors, Stambaugh Aviation, provide the financial backing and in-kind donations necessary to put the event together.  Three of the most popular musical acts in the area donate their time and talents to add to the enjoyment of the 1,000+ guests who attend. Volunteers by the dozens pour their free time and energies into the countless hours of phone calls, meetings, list-making, more meetings and pure, sheer physical labor required to create one evening of the best food, music and fun you will ever have.  
            And all of this takes place right at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, under the bright stars and sapphire sky of a spring night on St Simons Island. Incomparable food, great music, lavish goodies at incredible prices, landmark historic hotel and impeccable Southern hospitality. All for a good cause. There’s a lot to love.
            Please join us in welcoming Mr. and Mrs. Scott Bedell to A Taste of Glynn on Sunday, March 25 at the King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort on St. Simons. We’ll celebrate their anniversary and raise money for the benefit of the Glynn Community Crisis Center from 5-8 PM. We would love to see you there!
