Some Chocolate Festival Fun!

Monday, February 21st, 2011

The 22nd annual Chocolate Festival was Sunday, February 27th in the Mt. Washington Valley and was a smashing success.  Were you afraid to break your New Year’s resolution diet so early in the year?  Well, this was a fabulous time to eat however much chocolate you wanted and not feel the guilt later because cross country skiing or snowshoeing were involved in making the way to all of the chocolaty treats at each inn!  There were over 700 participants this year and the Stonehurst Manor was producing chocolate martinis at an impressive rate.  Make sure and put this event on your calendar for next year, it is a real treat.

Some of the delightful snacks you could enjoy along the way included brownie sundaes, chocolate dipped strawberries, chocolate cookies and many more.  The stops for the Chocolate Festival were on the trail between 11:00 am and 4:00 pm.  Some of the trail side chocolate stops included Adventure Suites, Eastern Inns and yours truly, Stonehurst Manor.  The tradition of skiing from inn to inn for The Chocolate Festival has been maintained for over 20 years.  Hopefully you didn’t miss out on this special annual event!  All proceeds went to maintaining the mountain trails.  Tickets were $20 or you could have purchased them for $25 the day of the festival.

So now you wish you didn’t miss out on the Sunday at the Chocolate Festival, but you still want to spend some of your time in North Conway?  Check out our lodging specials.

Just call us at 1-800-525-9100 or go online to make your reservations for a fun filled weekend!
