Although we’re unable to gather in a beautiful ballroom for Best Buddies Maryland’s annual Tastebuds event, that won’t stop us from celebrating! We have a virtual option that will keep us all safe, but still connected, while enjoying all the elements of the event that we know and love from years past.

We’ll still be able to enjoy delicious food (from Jimmy’s Famous Seafood), bid on fabulous items in our silent auction, and hear firsthand from some guest speakers about how Best Buddies is transforming our communities—all from the comfort of our homes!

On Friday, November 13th, guests will pick up a VIP Food Package at the Maryland State Fairgrounds between 5:30-6:30PM to take home and enjoy during our  Tastebuds at Home Zoom Party (8:00-9:30PM).

• Crab dip
• Two 8oz crab cakes
• Mixed potatoes and vegetable medley
• Old Bay buttered popcorn
• Two slices of Smith Island cake
• Deep Eddy Vodka cocktail package
• Imagery Wines (red and white) date night package
