Plenty of preparation work has been going on for months will continue daily in preparation for an always popular fundraiser slated for the end of the month. The 5th Annual Taste Night at the Museum represents a very significant revenue opportunity for the Camrose Centennial Museum Society. Attendees fortunate enough to purchase tickets before the annual sell-out will get to spend an evening strolling manicured Museum grounds and interesting historical displays while enjoying local eats, sweet treats and craft beverage samples. Camrose’s own favourite brewmasters, along with other Alberta breweries, have been invited to present their most popular wines, beer and spirits during the evening of reminiscing, food, fun and camaraderie.
