Tues., Aug. 13, 5 p.m. • Civic Center, Beaumont • $10
The less fortunate in Beaumont rely heavily on the many programs Some Other Place has to offer. Founded in 1968 by the local religious community to address the unmet emergency needs of local residents, Some Other Place was created to give people looking for assistance somewhere to turn when they were told by other entities to go to “some other place” from relief. In their biggest fundraiser of the year, a $10 ticket includes entry to the 22nd annual “The Tasting for Some Other Place,” which features bite-sized food samples from more than 40 local businesses, churches and organizations. From onion souffle, Buffalo chicken cheese dip, seasoned meatballs, brisket bites, Mardi Gras gumbo, salads, cheese balls, links and hot wings, the Tasting has something for everyone.
