Meetup Description If you LOVE chocolate, don't miss this huge festival of the stuff. It was a lot of fun last year with plenty of free gourmet samples at nearly every table/stand. You'll find it inside all three buildings at The World Forestry Center, so who cares if it's rainy or snowy outdoors.

(It can take a good 3-4 hours to visit all the tables and hear a seminar or
two, so we'll be heading in no later than 1:15pm. I recommend not eating anything sweet beforehand, so you can take in as many delicious samples as possible.

Group Rate: 10 or more people is $7.00/person at the door or $8 w/o the
group rate. We need to check in as a group for the rate, so please be there no later than 1:00pm.

    I'm glad you had fun...I did as well. That's right---nobody pushes us out of the way!!! I'll have to post pics of the ice cream woman. She loved the attention! Don't the foods recycle through??

    This was a fun one. The various chocolates were great and the wine was good as well. I learned that you better have serious skills if you are going to box Shannon out - no one there could handle her! I think we scared away that poor ice cream cone woman. I wonder where cookies end up when they get sucked into the fondue fountain?

    • “ I think I ate a year's worth of chocolate in one day. The wines were very good as well. ”
    • “ Parking was a pain but the Chocolate Fest was a blast! We wandered around to a wide variety of tables offering a truly grand assortment of Chocolates and things that go with chocolate. Thanks Shannon for putting this Meetup event together! ”
    • “ I thought the chocolate beer was bad tasting. A lot of the chocolate was not good. I did like the chocolate fountian. The people were so friendly in this meetup group. This was the best meetup since I heard and join other meetup groups. ”
