2015 Taste of the Browns Ticket Giveaway

I've been sharing a lot of events with you lately. It's that time of year. But, coming up is one of my favorites. After working for the Food Bank and planning this particular event for four years, I'm happy to say that Mr. H and I have continued to support the organization, and we've been able to attend almost every Taste of the Browns since I left.

Celebrating 17 years of tackling hunger for Northeast Ohio families, Taste of the Browns returns to FirstEnergy Stadium on Monday, September 21st. The event is the major annual fundraiser for the
Greater Cleveland Food Bank, the region’s largest hunger relief organization. With the more than $190,000 raised at the 2014 event, the Food Bank was able to distribute more than 760,000 meals to agencies in six counties.

Guests will stroll through the newly renovated Club Lounge as they sample food from 25 of our area's best chefs, including some of my favorites like: AMP 150, Butcher and the Brewer, Deagan's, Edwins, Fahrenheit, Hodge's, Lago, Momocho, Pier W, Greenhouse Tavern and Trentina, and all of the Bruell restaurants. You can see the full list of participating restaurants and beverage purveyors here.

You can also mingle with current and former Browns players, bid on really unique silent and live auction items, and take home a bottle from their Wine Pull Raffle. Honorary event co-chairs are Cleveland Browns Two-Time Pro Bowl CB Joe Haden and former Browns Linebacker and current Judge of the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas, Dick Ambrose.
General admission tickets are available for $175 ($75.00 of which is tax-deductible) or VIP tickets are available for $250 ($150 of which is tax deductible). All proceeds benefit the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. Access to the VIP Lounge will include exclusive tastings, access to Cleveland Browns celebrities and a personalized listing in the scrolling Thank You video played during the event. Tickets are still on sale here.

Or, you can win two General Admission tickets here! To enter the ticket giveaway, use the rafflecopter form below. There are several ways to enter, and you can tweet daily. The random winner will be selected on Monday, September 14th.

About the Greater Cleveland Food Bank
The Greater Cleveland Food Bank is the largest hunger relief organization in Northeast Ohio, providing 45 million meals in 2014 to hungry people in Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, Geauga, Lake, Ashland and Richland counties. Their mission is to ensure that everyone in our communities has the nutritious food they need every day. They do this through both food distribution and SNAP outreach efforts. The best and easiest way to help is to go online to www.GreaterClevelandFoodBank.org. The general public can help by making a monetary donation. For every dollar donated, the Food Bank can provide enough food for four nutritious meals. 

Good luck!

Disclosure: I was provided with two General Admission tickets to attend, and two to give away, in exchange for this blog post. I am a former employee of the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. All opinions stated are 100% my own.

  6. They all sound good, but I've got to go with Fleming's offer - filet of beef tenderloin and mac n cheese. Although I am also a sucker for lobster bisque (Blue Point Grille). Lots of good restaurants featured here.
