    “We are thrilled to bring Lakeview Taco Fest back for its eleventh year, “Becca Girsch, Executive Director of the Lakeview Roscoe Village Chamber of Commerce, said. “Thanks to all fest attendees, the suggested gate donation helps keep this annual fest strong for all to enjoy. The donations benefit the invaluable programs and services of the Friends of Lakeview.”

    The event is free to attend, but organizers say a $10 suggested donation for the event benefits the Friends of Lakeview.
