For the second year in a row, Fairfax City’s Office of Economic Development is partnering with the Central Fairfax Chamber of Commerce to host Fairfax City’s Golden Ticket Contest as part of the Chocolate Lovers Festival. The contest aims to recreate the childhood fantasy of finding a golden ticket in a candy bar like Grandpa Jo in “Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory”.
Beginning Sunday, January 31, 2020 chocolate bars made by Fairfax City local chocolatier Cameron’s Coffee & Chocolates will be available for purchase at Fairfax City businesses for $3.00 each until the end of February. There will be a total of 1,200 chocolate bars available at businesses located throughout the city with three golden tickets hidden within the bars.
The three lucky winner who find the golden tickets will receive a Chocolate Lovers gift basket that includes chocolate and gifts/gift cards from Fairfax City businesses. Proceeds from the sale of the chocolate bars will benefit the 2020 Chocolate Lovers Festival grant recipients , which include charitable organization(s) that provide services directly to people who live in Fairfax City.
