Heather Hurlbert, a past contestant on Bravo’s reality television show “Top Chef: Just Desserts,” will create some of the desserts attendees can sample. Organizers say Hurlbert plans to attend, but her busy schedule may prevent her from being there. She has been the executive pastry chef at Cherokee Town & Country Club in Atlanta since 2005.
The third annual Sweet Event will be Saturday, May 14, at 7 p.m. at Trevitt Hall in downtown Dalton. Tickets are $25 and are available at the day care center, Green Spot, Hurt’s Cleaners and The Dalton Depot.
“We are thrilled to have someone of Chef Hurlbert’s notoriety involved with our event,” said day care board chairman Curtis Callaway. “She has been quite accommodating, fitting the Day Care Center into her busy schedule and personally making an effort to attend The Sweet Event. We are seeing people flock to larger markets, paying lots of money to attend meet and greets with celebrity chefs. We hope that the citizens of our community will appreciate the opportunity available right in their backyard to sample the work of a master pastry chef, for a fraction of the cost, all the while supporting one of the community’s important service agencies.”
The event will also include a silent auction and entertainment by the Dave Pope Trio.
For information, call the center at 706-278-8991.
