This downtown Somerville, NJ event is for all chocolate lovers
If there’s any month out of the year to pretend that chocolate calories don’t count, it’s February. With it being Valentine’s Day, chocolate is on everyone’s mind and you can’t escape it when you walk into any store.
That’s why it’s the perfect timing for this event.
Downtown Somerville is hosting a Chocolate Walk that you can complete throughout the month of February and all I need to know is where do I sign up?!
I went to Immaculata High School in Somerville and even back then the downtown area was THE hangout. It’s so much more attractive now.
There are new, more modern places to shop and eat but don’t count out the OG’s that have been there from the beginning.
There’s so much to do for not only adults but kids too. Have you ever been to YESTERcades on Division Street?
There are constant events being held in Downtown Somerville so this Chocolate Walk fits right in.
Here’s the concept…
Complete at least 5 stops from the list on the chocolate walk and make sure you take a picture of the receipts because that’s how you enter to win “a basket of Downtown Somerville Swag”.
All submissions must be in by Feb. 28 and can be sent to downtownsomervillealliance@gmail.com.
There are 16 places in Somerville you can stop at but there’s a specific item you must get from each.
