Gala event supports Chesapeake Care Free Clinic

The 15th Annual Taste of Chesapeake was recently held at the Chesapeake Conference Center. Supporters of the event had the chance to sample a variety of tasty treats provided by local restaurants and caterers. Guests were also able to participate in a silent auction of four-foot Christmas trees and other holiday favorites. The Tiki Bar Band provided entertainment. All proceeds benefited the Chesapeake Care Free Clinic and its new dental center.
