A Sweet Afaire brings sweet treats and more
SEASIDE — Seaside’s A
Sweet Affaire has trans-
formed from a chocolate and
wine event associated with
Valentine’s Day to a more
expansive celebration of
sweet delights. A Sweet Af-
faire features an increasing
representation of appetizers,
desserts and auction items
from Iron Chef Goes Coast-
al winners and participants
and Coast Weekend favorite
restaurants of 2015.
Past participants are re-
turning Sunday, March 6,
from 2 to 4:30 p.m., to serve
their signature small bites,
tempting treats, wines, lo-
cal brews and non-alcohol-
ic beverages. Local chefs,
restaurateurs, vintners and
brewers who have prepared
and donated the afternoon’s
appetizers, desserts and bev-
erages will be on hand at the
Seaside Convention Center.
Pianist Lynn Archibald
will provide music for the
event. The silent and live auc-
tions include activities with-
in and outside the local area,
donated by merchants and
individuals. Two items back
by popular demade are A Day
at the State Capitol, hosted
by Rep. Deborah Boone, and
Dinner for Six prepared in
your home by chef Jonathan
Hoffman, a two-time winner
of Iron Chef Goes Coastal.
A Sweet Affaire is joint-
ly sponsored by the Sunset
Park and Recreation Founda-
tion and the Seaside Rotary
Foundation. Proceeds pro-
vide scholarships to children
youth, and adults to enable
them to participate in the ar-
ray of positive lifestyle activ-
ities provided by the Sunset
Empire Park and Recreation
District. Rotary proceeds
fund many school and com-
munity projects.
Tickets for A Sweet Affaire,
an event for adults, are $35
and may be purchased at U.S.
Bank, Sunset Pool, the Bob
Chisholm Community Center
or at www.sunsetempire.com.
Auction items may be pre-
viewed at www.Facebook.
