Shining Stars’ Fall fundraiser, Unbridled Taste, will be hosted on September 19, 2026 on the grounds of our new farm located in picturesque Adams County. This event is Shining Stars’ largest fundraiser and will feature the unique opportunity to be one of the first to see our nearly completed new office and welcoming client space that will assist us in nearly doubling our programming capacity in the first year!

Purchase tickets early as we expect this event to sell out quickly. 21 and over, please. See below to purchase tickets.

Situated under the stars and a magnificent glowing tent, this year’s culinary artists will serve up a delicious tasting menu that is sure to please. Guests will also enjoy cocktails, a wine pull, bourbon and wine tasting, live music, carriage rides around our new farm and a visit from some of Shining Stars’ therapy horses.

Our Unbridled Taste sponsors help make Shining Stars’ programs possible. See below for sponsorship information or contact Ben at (717) 451-8325 or ben@sstrmail.org.
