VVW independent/submitted information

The Main Street Van Wert Promotions Committee announces the return of the Downtown Chocolate Walk, to be held Friday evening, February 7. Participating businesses will be open for this special event from 4-8 p.m. Tickets are $20 per ticket and must be purchased or reserved

The evening of the event, “chocolate walkers” will begin at the MSVW office to pick up a special chocolate bag sponsored by Stephanie Dawn, as well as a map of the downtown stops. Then relax and savor the evening while strolling at one’s leisure through the participating businesses downtown. 

Enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride up and down Main Street from Town & Country Carriage Service, sponsored by Kitchens Inc. Show the event bag at each Chocolate Stop on the map to sample or collect nearly 20 chocolate treats.

A full list of participating businesses will be announced a week before the event. Ticketholders will visit businesses they are familiar with and learn about ones they may not know. It’s a fun way to visit a new business or get reacquainted with stores and offices downtown.

Grab friends or invite someone special and enjoy this excursion through downtown Van Wert. A limited number of tickets are available and can be purchased in person at the MSVW office, 136 E. Main St.; Collins Fine Foods, 223 N. Washington St., or Truly D’Vine, 117 W. Main St. Tickets may also be reserved over the phone.
