It Is a Wrap!
The 11th edition of International Flavors of Marina was held on April 4 at the SpringHill Suites by Marriott. Our goal was to once again host a food, wine and beer event showcasing Marina’s culinary diversity.
As live musicians set a festive and relaxed atmosphere, guests mingled and enjoyed generous samples from our local chefs, winemakers and brewers until the very end of the night thanks to the hotel’s comfortable patio and fire pits.
