Noblesville Main Street put on the annual Chocolate Trail on Sept. 17 from 5 to 8 p.m. The event featured 17 of Noblesville’s local businesses around the downtown square, giving out free chocolate treats, including cookies, candy and chocolate wine while also offering discounts on items.
Shoppers received a “passport” they brought with them to each of the participating stores. The passport contained a map with numbers of each store, and shoppers received stickers from each place visited.
Multiple prizes were awarded through a drawing for those who completed the Chocolate Trail. The grand prize totaled approximately $300 and featured donations from all participating stores.
“We are honored to officially take over the planning of this event and hope to carry on a fun annual tradition,” stated Chris Owens, executive director of Noblesville Main Street. “This evening is a great way for us to wrap up the Thursday Market for the year and continue to promote the wonderful features of downtown Noblesville.”
An after party was held after the trail was completed and included music and a beer garden. To learn more about Noblesville Main Street, visit NoblesvilleMainStreet.org.
