greaterreading.org\/GTB26<\/a> for information about the event and a link to purchase a passport. This is the third year for the event under the Go Taste Berks name. It had previously been a one-night event called Taste of Berks.<\/p>\nHow it works<\/p>\n
During November, each participating business will have a QR code posted where visitors may scan it to validate their visit. Each check-in earns points and allows passport holders to claim any deal or sample the business is offering.<\/p>\n
Check-ins and activities also count toward a digital leaderboard. At the end of the monthlong event, the top three passports with the most points will win one of three \u201cGo Experience Berks\u201d prizes, according to the event website.<\/p>\n
Participants earn 5 points for every Go Taste Berks vendor they visit and scan their QR code. Extra points can be earned by completing activities throughout the challenge, such as sharing a photo or leaving a review about their food, drink or experience, according to the release.<\/p>\n
In addition, the most frequented vendor \u2014 determined by digital check-ins \u2014 will receive a free eSpotlight email and a social media takeover of GRCA\u2019s channels.<\/p>\n
The following are among the participating business categories:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Bars & Restaurants<\/p>\n
\u2022 Breweries & Wineries<\/p>\n
\u2022 Cafes<\/p>\n
\u2022 Retail Markets<\/p>\n
\u2022 Farms & Creameries<\/p>\n
