The 17th annual Taste of Lakeport was a great success, thanks to the many people who participated in so many ways.

Over 600 people attended, local wineries and restaurants brought delicious samples, businesses stayed open to host guests, and many volunteers worked tirelessly to make this a memorable event.

The Taste of Lakeport is a major fundraiser for the Lakeport Main Street Association, which works on promoting a healthy and vibrant downtown Lakeport.

The support we have received at Taste of Lakeport is much appreciated and allows us to continue our many projects in Lakeport.

We especially wish to thank the city of Lakeport for their ongoing support of this and other events and activities of the Lakeport Main Street Association.

The city of Lakeport Public Works Department and the Lakeport Police Department both provided incredible help.

The wonderful music throughout the event was provided by Without A Net, Polecat Rodeo and LC Diamonds.
