 The Chocolate and Wine Festival has grown dramatically over a few short years. The fifth annual Festival will be held in Montrose on May 19th from 2:30pm to 7:30pm. Get there early for the BBQ cook-off on the Green at 11:30am, and don't miss your chance to participate in starting the Sweet Dreams quilt from noon to 2:30pm.
Once again the chocolate and wine festivities will benefit both the Association and the hospital. The Festival features "lots of great music, arts and crafts, wine & chocolate recipe demonstrations, wine making lectures and gourmet food & fine chocolate candy samplings that make a perfect backdrop for wine, wine, wine!" We thank chairperson Tom Follert (of Chocolates by Leopold), the Chocolate & Wine Festival Board and Committee members and the many volunteers who make the Festival possible! |

The Montrose Adult School is coordinating a series of five walking tours of Montrose, based on on the brochures created by the Historical Society and the Motnrose Restoration Committee. Tours are held on Sundays from 5/6 to 6/10 (excluding Memorial Day weekend) and begin at 1pm at St. Paul's Hall with an overview of the section to be covered that day. Each tour is $10, which benefits the three sponsoring organizations (the Historical Society, the Montrose Restoration Committee, and the Center for Anti-Slavery Studies); or you can take all 5 tours for $45. Please see the Montrose Adult School description for more information. |
