Description

This year we are adding several new events, including cooking classes sponsored by the Ocean Crest Resort and a new kid's event at the "Palace of Treats" (Pacific Beach resort Conference Center). We've added a third venue, the "Hot Cocoa Hall" at the North Beach Community Center to hold our new vendors.

This year's annual Chocolate Recipe Contest guest judges are The Culinary Madman, Jess Owen from the Ocean Crest Resort and Art Sanders from KOMO News Radio. Once the festival is over, recipes collected from the first five years will be made into a collector's cookbook.

On Sunday of the Festival, ALL professional anfd volunteer fire, EMS, law enforcement and 9-1-1 operators are invited to bring a guest for FREE! This is the Festival Board's way of saying, 'Thank You!' to these extaordinary people.
