Just in time for Mother’s Day, Christos House will once again have its annual Chocolate Festival. Chocolate lovers will be able to enjoy a wide selection of tasty treats from professional and amateur chocolatiers alike. This year’s festival will be held from noon to 4 p.m. May 10th at the First United Methodist Church, 503 West Main Street in West Plains. A silent auction will be held during the event as well as a live auction at 1 p.m.
A tasting competition will be held with prizes for the contestants being presented during the festival.
The entry fee is $10. Children ages 10 and under can get in for free with adult supervision. The entry fee comes with 15 tasting tickets that attendees can use to sample any of the available chocolate treats. Additional tickets can be purchased for one ticket for $1 or six tickets for $5.
“We are looking forward to having a fun chocolate festival for all ages,” said Executive Director Kelli Neel. “We always appreciate the support from our community in helping us continue and grow our mission.”
All funds raised will go to support the Christos House Domestic and Sexual Violence Shelter and the Christos House Outreach program. Christos House serves and supports domestic and sexual violence victims and their families in Carter, Douglas, Howell, Oregon, Ozark, Shannon, Texas, and Wright counties.
