On October 29th, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., you’ll walk Detroit Avenue between Manor Park Avenue and Mars Avenue, visiting the 30 participating businesses and receiving a delightful chocolate treat at each stop. Some, like chocolate soup and chocolate lava cake, you’ll enjoy on the spot. Others you’ll be able to take home to savor later. First Federal of Lakewood is the first tour stop, where you will pick up your Chocolate Walk bag. On display there will be a myriad of gift baskets for which you may buy raffle tickets, $1 each or 6 for $5, and participate in a Chinese auction.
The event also includes a search for the golden eggs. A dozen numbered golden eggs will scattered among the businesses on the Walk. Find them all and you’ll receive a raffle ticket at the last stop. Lakewood’s own Cats on Holiday will keep you movin’ and groovin’ down the street with their toe-tapping “swamp pop” music from 7:00 – 9:00.
The evening ends with the Grand Finale Sundae Bar, sponsored by Giant Eagle, which will be open from 8:00 – 10:00 in the former Thrifty Peddler at the corner of Detroit & Marlowe. The raffle prizes will move there so you’ll get a second chance to enter the raffle while you enjoy your ice cream. Ticket purchases are also available at the following downtown merchant locations:
- Geiger’s – 14710 Detroit Avenue
- Plantation Home – 14401 Detroit Avenue
- Lion & Blue – 15106 Detroit Avenue
