"THE OUTER BANKS 2010 TASTE OF THE BEACH WEEKEND ~ MARCH 11-14, 2010
Outer Banks, NC (February 26, 2010) – The 2010 Outer Banks Taste of The Beach Weekend is right around the corner, March 11-14, 2010. The Outer Banks Restaurant Association (OBRA) has been hosting the Taste of The Beach for over 25 years and this is the third year of presenting The Outer Banks Taste of The Beach as a weekend long event. With over 50 individual events from Corolla to Manteo, ticket sales have already exceeded the 2009 event and several events have already sold out.
The event will feature National Television Biggest Loser Winners, Ed Brantley and Heba Salama, who will be hosting Healthy Eating / Healthy Living Classes. Other events throughout the weekend include wine tastings, cooking classes, special menu presentations, tapas crawls, brewery tours and an exciting array of creative combinations of culinary delights and fun activities on the Outer Banks, culminating with the Taste of The Beach Expo on Sunday, March 14th at Pamlico Jack’s Pirate Hideaway located in Nags Head, North Carolina.
'Capitalizing on the honor of being named one of the Top Ten Seafood and Wine Festivals in the nation by Coastal Living magazine', notes OBRA President, Ben Sproul, 'the Association is aggressively promoting the 2010 Outer Banks Taste of The Beach Weekend outside of Dare County, as well as locally, to bring media and visitors to The Outer Banks for this extraordinary opportunity'.
Thanks to Identify Yourself and OBX Bank, new to the event this year is the OBX Taste of The Beach Company Store. This includes men’s and women’s T-shirts, aprons, ball caps, shot glasses, wine glasses, pint glasses, bumper stickers, and canvas tote bags. All tagged with the already famous tag line for the event “Food. Drink. Fun”. The quantities are all very limited and will be a must have for all attendees. Items will only be available at a few select events. To find out where the OBX Taste of The Beach Company Store will be during the weekend, visit www.obxtasteofthebeach.com.
The 2010 Taste of The Beach Weekend allows visiting and local foodies a chance to create a personalized itinerary of diverse culinary experiences and fun activities. Thanks to a Tourism Assistance Grant from the Outer Banks Visitors Bureau, a robust marketing campaign – featuring Internet, print, social networking, radio and TV advertising - will lead a targeted audience to the new OBRA website, www.obxtasteofthebeach.com, where they will be able to browse and then choose from a wide array of activities over the four day weekend. In addition to seeing what events are taking place, they will be able to purchase their tickets online.
The Outer Banks has over 170 area restaurants that are rich in diversity and quality, and depending upon one's culinary mood, diners can treat themselves to everything from the excellent local seafood to Italian, Mexican, Southwestern, French and more. Several members of the Outer Banks Hotel Motel Association & the Outer Banks Association of Realtors are offering special Taste of The Beach weekend rates and packages over the long event weekend March 11 – 14, 2010. Their offers are also featured on the website.
