Event Description: A one and only special evening “A Chocolate Affair” will celebrate the Valentine Season. The popular event will be held Saturday, February 8, 2014 at 6:00 pm in the main building at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds on Placerville Drive, Placerville, Ca. Two local clubs of Soroptimist International, Cameron Park/El Dorado Hills and Placerville, will co-host the event, which benefits women, children, families, scholarships and grants. Dave Bender, Channel 13’s charming weatherman, will emcee. Attendees are treated to samplings of delicious foods from generous local restaurants, caterers, bakeries and chocolatiers. More than a dozen wineries will be pouring tastings of delectable El Dorado County wines. All present will have the opportunity to bid at the silent as well as the live auction. Some of the many great items to bid on are a collection of fine wines, a catered Dinner for Eight at a local residence and an airplane ride with Julie Clark of Aviati. The two Soroptimist clubs raised over $26,000.00 at last year’s event. Proceeds are divided between the two clubs for distribution back into the community. Past contributions have included, Women’s Opportunity Award; for returning students, Ruby Award; for community service, Violet Richardson Award; for citizenship. In addition, assistance was provided to: Center for Violence Free Relationships, Prom Boutique, Placerville Senior Center, Regional Sex-Trafficking Awareness project, Helping Hands Fund, Show N Shine Fly In, Luna Fest and other worthy community projects.
