Every year, holiday shoppers look for ideas and insight into the newest, most extraordinary and most popular holiday gifts. This year, they can give a gift that is truly unique - tickets to the fourth annual "Chocolate Dreams - An Evening of Decadent Bliss." The fundraiser benefits GuardiaCare Services, a Louisville social service agency celebrating 40 years of serving area seniors who are at financial and physical risk. The event, sponsored by Brown-Forman, will take place on Monday, February 23, 2009 from 6:00pm to 9:00pm in the Triple Crown Room at Churchill Downs.

The one-of-a-kind evening will feature samplings of premiere chocolate creations prepared by local culinary professionals who will compete for awards in several unique categories. Along with samplings of exquisite chocolate creations, the benefit will feature wine, light hors d'oeuvres, and an extensive silent auction. The night will be a chocoholic's fantasy. The ticket price is $50 per person or $90 per couple. For more information or to purchase tickets, please contact Diane Richey at (502) 585-9949 or mail to drichey@guardiacare.org, or log onto   www.chocolatedreams.org.
