Tailgate Taste-Off: Benefiting Westchester Parks Foundation 🌳
Eat, Vote, and Explore for a Cause!
Join us for a high-energy culinary showdown at the stunning Croton Point Park. Tailgate Taste-Off isn't just another food festival—it’s a "People’s Choice" competition where you hold the power. We’ve hand-selected 10 of the Hudson Valley’s premier food trucks to go head-to-head, and they need your palate to decide who reigns supreme.
Best of all? Every bite helps preserve the natural beauty of our community. All proceeds benefit the Westchester Parks Foundation (WPF), ensuring our green spaces remain vibrant for generations to come.
💡 Pro Tip: Grab your tickets early! Our Early Bird pricing offers a 50% discount off the gate price—but only for the first 500 foodies.
