Testimonials

“We take great pride in participating in Taste of Ladera. It is a community event that puts Ladera Ranch on the map as a fun and exciting place to live. Those who have never been to Ladera experience what makes our town so unique. We are proud to have had Ladera Performing Arts perform in the Taste of Ladera for the past two years. We are thrilled to celebrate together in such a fun filled extravaganza of a weekend!”

“I have been a volunteer with Taste of Ladera since it began. I have designed most of the graphics that you see. Working with Michelle Patterson and watching her baby grow to what it has become today has been a true labor of love. Every year just gets better and better. I am so proud and delighted to be involved with such a first class event that gives so much back to the community!”

-Lance Perkins

“As a resident of Ladera Ranch, the Taste of Ladera is the one event that everyone in my family looks forward to. There is something for everyone and the event itself is a blast! As equally important, is that the event generates so much money for local charities. Ultimately, this event is one example of what is so great about Ladera Ranch.”

“My husband and I have volunteered for the Taste of Ladera every year we have lived in Ladera. It is so well organized by Michelle Patterson; it is a joy to be involved. To bring such a wonderful event to our community, for charity, really says what we are all about. The fantastic food and entertainment is better every year. It has something for everyone, no matter what age. I hope to see you all there.”

“How do you ladies do it?! I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all the help you have been in our planning for the Taste of Ladera. As this is Union Bank's first year sponsoring the event, we have had a lot of details to work through. I want to thank Michelle Patterson and Diana Baylor for always being available to answer questions, offer suggestions and provide assistance. With so much planning and work you ladies have to do, it is truly amazing how you still make yourselves so available. Union Bank is excited to be a part of Taste of Ladera this year and looking forward to an exciting weekend. Thank you.”
