Who makes the best margarita?
On Friday, May 3, 2024, the sixth annual Taste of Margarita fundraising event was held at Elegant Affairs in Springfield, MA. With over 150 people in attendance, the event was a success! Vendors, known as MargTenders, lined the Glass Room of Elegant Affairs while father-daughter duo Gary & Natalie Jones filled the air with harmonious melodies. Supporters of Helix Human Services made their way around the room tasting each MargTender’s margarita sample. After sampling all 8, they voted for the “Best Margarita in the Pioneer Valley”. There was also food and raffles for guests.
