7th Annual Chocolate Decadence: The Sweetest Party in Town.
Cost $30 general; $75 VIP
Indulge at the Seventh Annual Chocolate Decadence event with in fine foods, wines, shopping, and, of course, chocolates. In May 2007 Boca Life Magazine declared Chocolate Decadence second on the list of Ten Best Annual Palm Beach Events. The Shops at Boca Center host this unique chocolate festival where you sample chocolate treasures from local, regional, and national chocolate vendors. As you taste your way through the many food vendors, the festival provides the perfect occasion to spoil yourself or the ones you love with jewelry, clothes, spa packages, and more from our lavish retail vendors.
Relish the exclusive Chocolate Decadence festival's VIP area where guests will enjoy champagne, extraordinary food and chocolate, and a special gift!
The festival includes a competition amongst local chocolatiers, restaurants, and pastry chefs for the creation of the Best Dessert, Best Drink, and Best Confection, judged by a distinguished panel of chocolate connoisseurs. The highlight of the evening is the naming of the "Sweethearts," which recognizes individuals or couples that demonstrate a longstanding contribution to the community in South Florida.
Raffles of luxurious gifts, live music and entertainment accompany a deliciously decadent evening for the chocolate lover in anyone.
In addition, the Junior League of Boca Raton will be selling our annual cookbook, Savor the Moment, the perfect gift for the chef in you! All proceeds raised from Chocolate Decadence support the community projects of the Junior League of Boca Raton.
Chocolate Decadence has many sponsorship opportunities available and limited availability for vendors interested in participating at the event.

The Shulamit Slimmers goal is to Introduce and Inspire members to try various methods of exercise. It is not meant to replace any diet or program members may already have in place. We have local gyms, Club Fitness, Curves, Energy Express, and Fit Studio donating classes and demonstrations, other classes include Belly Dancing, Water Aerobics, Tai Chi, Latin Dancing at The Palms Ball Room and Torah Yoga. The program will also include lectures discussing and comparing various major diets, tips for eating out, even hypnosis for eating less. The Shulamit Slimmers will meet at various exercise venues in the Wellington area for 12 weeks beginning on February 4th through April 14th. All participants will maintain any program they choose while having the opportunity to try new and various exercise methods as well as developing support with co-members. Meetings will be Thursday evenings @ 7 pm unless otherwise noted. There is an $18 participation fee for the 12 weeks. This program is open to anyone even those not needing to loose weight but wanting to experiment with different forms of exercise.

For those members wanting additional motivation and or interested in a competition, we will have a 50/50 kitty. Members choosing to participate in the competition will put $10 in the first week. The member that looses the most inches (total hips, waist, and bust) at the end of the twelve weeks will win half the money that was put in the kitty, the remaining money will go to a Hadassah project of their choice.
