About 450 people attend the Taste of Highlands Ranch at the RecreationCenter at Eastridge on Friday, May 13.

The Taste of Highlands Ranch was a banquet of mouth-watering, tastebud-tingling, food extravaganza. Participants strolled a café-lined avenue as the amazing aroma in the air caused their mouths to drool over the crème de la crème of area restaurants. People sampled wines and beer from County Line Liquors as they enjoyed this unparalleled dining experience.

Additionally, a silent auction was held with all the proceeds to benefit Civic Green Park. Nestled in the Town Center, the park site is immediately south of the Highlands Ranch Library.

Musical entertainment was provided by the jazz group “After Midnight.”
