The attendance at Saturday’s 12th Annual Taste of Tamarac beat last year’s by a few hundred people according to Peter Mason, Executive Director of the Tamarac Chamber of Commerce.
“The vendors were great. I do hope people go support them,” said Mason “It’s not easy bringing 500 food samples, staffing and being away from their businesses. Many of them had a long day.”

At the front of the Community Center, there was a small Arts and Crafts fest, a preview of the April Arts and Craft Festival that the Chamber will be hosting, as well as a painting demonstration by Ruben Ubiera.
Business vendors in attendance included: Aetna, Brightstar Credit Union, Broward Health Coral Springs, Broward Sheriff Office, Carespot, Central Parc Communities, City Furniture, Classic Styles, Dignity Memorial, Elite, Real Estate, En USA, Fire Ranger, Florida Panthers, Florida Power & Light, Interplex Sunbelt, Law Offices of Roger C Simmons, Mary Kay, MCCI Medical Group, Planet Fitness, Prestige Car Wash, Senior Medical, University Hospital & Medical Center and Walgreens,
