Join us as Art Zimmer presents The Great Chocolate Wreck; a fascinating (and yes, very real) historic tale that's equal parts sweet and spectacular.

Come for the history, stay for the chocolate themed chaos on Friday March 20 at 6:00pm. This one’s going to be a treat.

 Art Zimmer was at the chocolate train wreck the day after it happened in 1955. Art was 17 years old. Art owns the land where the chocolate train wreck took place. After 12 years, he has partially restored the wreck site into an historic village park.
