A Taste of Cy-Fair returns this Saturday, Sept. 29, for its second year serving up wine, beer and food samples from local vendors.

The event is scheduled from 5-8 p.m. at Lakeland Village Center, 10615 Fry Road, Cypress. Parking will be available across the street at Cypress Ranch High School.

All proceeds from the event will once again benefit Cy-Hope, a nonprofit that offers services and programs for Cy-Fair children—including the backpack program that sends students home with food over the weekend, counseling and speech therapy services, life skills classes and Hope Centers throughout the community.

A Taste of Cy-Fair launched last year in response to Hurricane Harvey, and attendees raised more than $20,000 for Cy-Hope’s efforts to help families in the region recover from the storm.
