Chocolate Competition
Hi,
I believe that this (the 'News' section) is the appropriate place to post this. There will be chocolate competition this October on Long Island.
We are inviting chocolatiers who wish to enter the competition and anyone who would like to help judge to contact us.
There is no fee involved at all and entries can be mailed in.
Below is the general information:

Hi Carol,
Shoot me an email and I will reply with the application attached. I'll send it in both MS Word and PDF. Let me know if another format works better for you.

Why don't you upload the forms here so people can download them? And how do you get to be a judge? When the details for 2009 are known let us know so we can give people more advance notice (and I would love to be a judge next year).
