10th Annual Death By Chocolate Set For Saturday

WEST OCEAN CITY – The 10th Annual Death by Chocolate event is returning to West Ocean City stores this weekend for a day of sweet treats, games and prizes.

“The event was designed to create awareness as to who your local merchants are,” CraZy LadyZ! co-owner Jan Patterson said.

At the beginning of the day, participants can pick up a game card from any of the participating businesses and collect clues from each of the stores until the card is complete. At the same time, merchants that day will be serving up chocolate to visitors.

This year’s theme, “Crazy Clue,” will take participants through each store, where they will search for evidence and eliminate suspects until they determine the criminal, weapon and location.

Patterson said the annual event draws a larger crowd each year and encourages both visitors and locals alike to go into surrounding stores they don’t usually frequent.
