2012 South East Texas Tomato Festival (SETTFest) Cancelled
EVENT CANCELLED
We have had some unforeseen scheduling issues and other commitments come up that make hosting the event this year impossible. Putting on a tomato tasting for this many people requires our full attention and organization, so we apologize, but must cancel the tasting for 2012. A gathering of tomato growers and enthusiasts who want to share and taste different varieties of homegrown tomatoes. When is it? Saturday, June 2, 2012 Setup is at 11:30am Tasting begins at 12:30pm Where is it? Palmetto State Park @ the Group Picnic Pavillion / Refrectory in Gonzales, TX. [Map of Park] Please Note: there is a $3 per person Gate Fee for the use of Palmetto State Park. (However, you may be able to get a discount or free entry if you meet this criteria "$2 per day, per person, Texas residents 65 & born 9/1/1930 or after. N/C for persons 12 & under, disabled vets or born before 9/1/1930.") Who will be there? Tomato growers and their families and friends from Texas and surrounding areas. Everyone with an interest in tasting tomatoes is encouraged and welcome to attend. If you have any doubts whatsoever as to whether you'd be welcome or not, rest assured that we'd love to have you! If you don't have any tomatoes to bring, no worries. Food items, drinks and supplies are always appreciated (or a little help w/setup or post-event cleanup if you have the time or interest), and we do also appreciate a $5 suggested donation from all attendees (per person) just to help us cover our costs of hosting the event. If you are planning on attending the tasting, it would be helpful if you could drop us a line / Contact Us at the website for planning purposes, including listing any food items, drinks, or supplies you plan to bring. You can view photos of last year's event in our 2011 Photo Album. For photos of previous year events - 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 We hope to see plenty of fellow tomato lovers at the 2012 South East Texas Tomato Festival! |
