6th Annual Chocolate Extravaganza February 13, 2010

The 6th Annual Chocolate Extravaganza will take place at the Upton Branch Library on Saturday, February 13 between the hours of 2:00 - 4:00 p.m.

There is a $2.00 admission fee into the Chocolate Extravaganza. For your $2.00 fee you can sample all of the chocolate goodies anytime between the hours of 2:00-4:00 p.m. No takeouts of chocolate goodies is allowed before the 4:00 p.m. end of the Chocolate Extravaganza.

After the event ends at 4:00 p.m. the remaining chocolate goodies will be offered by the plateful for a donation to the Upton Branch Library.

We are looking for people to make/bake and otherwise create chocolate goodies for the Chocolate Extravaganza attendees to sample. We have had cheesecakes, truffles, cookies, muffins, breads, brownies and many other examples of chocolate goodness.

We know that there are many people in the Upton area that are the most wonderful cooks and candy makers. Please dig out your favorite recipes and make that goodie and donate it to the Upton Branch Library 6th Annual Chocolate Extravaganza.

If you can help the Upton Branch Library with chocolate goodies or you have questions, please, feel free to call the Upton Branch Library at 307-468-2324.
