Last weekend was so full of events, it took us until Thursday to have all of the photos uploaded!

The Chocolate & Wine Festival is a wonderful event for more than the obvious reasons (chocolate & wine) but because the proceeds from the day go to benefit local nonprofits and scholarships. Cabot helped to sponsor the event which featured local wineries, chocolatiers, live music, crafts, a cupcake war and a BBQ contest.
I’m proud to say that this year Cabot came home with the gold in the BBQ contest – winning not just the Judge’s Choice Award for the tastiest ribs but also the People’s Choice Award! Congratulations and a huge thank you to Cabot’s BBQ Master Jerry Dugas and to his apprentice chef Kevin Dawson.

The Scranton School for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children (SSDHHC) hosted its 10th Annual Car Show to benefit the school and got quite a turnout of automobiles. The CNG powered 1955 Chevy was also there for the show and drew quite a crowd from the car enthusiasts present.
Be sure to check out all of the amazing vehicles present on our Flickr site.
