Join us for the 2nd Annual Gingerbread Competition in support of
Make-A-Wish Connecticut!
We are incredibly excited to host this event for its second year in a row. Last year we were absolutely blown away by the creativity and enthusiasm that teams brought to the table and we can't wait to see what everyone comes up with this year!
For those who may be new to the event, we are challenging teams to create incredible Gingerbread Houses! From Monday, December 7th through Sunday, December 13th everyone will be able to view and vote for their favorite creation - the top 3 vote getters win some great prizes along with bragging rights!
The best part of this fun event is that all proceeds go to Make-A-Wish Connecticut, an organization that grants life-changing wishes to local children with critical illnesses.
This year's event will be conducted in a new format. Instead of gathering together, we will be mailing gingerbread kits to each participant's home so that everyone can participate safely and on their own time!
A $100 entry fee will provide an individual or team of any size with all the materials needed to build a complete house. Teams are also encouraged to go beyond the materials provided to make the best creation possible!
