On October 19, 2013, Easter Seals Nevada hosted its third annual “Cheers to Chocolate” event at Tivoli Village. The sweetest fundraising event in the valley, more than 500 attendees strolled the cobblestone streets of Tivoli and sampled wines from around the world provided by Total Wine & More and chocolate infused treats from vendors around Las Vegas (Pictured: Earl Turner – Photo credit: Audrey Dempsey, Infinity Photo).

Sponsors of this year’s event were recognized during the VIP portion and after, attendees moved and grooved to the musical stylings of Earl Turner and Tommy Ward & Swayd, with a special appearance by Pia Zadora. Local sculptor Dorit Schwartz showcased her collection “The Light Within” and silent auction items of unique art pieces, one-of-a-kind jewelry, vacation packages and other luxurious items were bid on throughout the evening. One lucky raffle winner won a two-carat chocolate diamond ring by D&R House of Diamonds appraised at $7,000.
