Historical November 1984 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
Those of you who have been following the financial trials and tribulations of The Times (nee The Paper) know food plays a major role in our fund-raising efforts.
The party to be held on November 17 is no different.
As a highlight to our traditional come-drink-and-eat-for-$5.00 fund raiser, we will sponsor a chocolate chip cookie contest.
The winner will take home $100 and be featured in the December issue of The Times; other contestants will receive prizes as well.
For a $25 tax deductible donation, one can be a judge—joining such illustrious journalists as Joe Pollack, Renni Shuter, and Tom Hoerr.
In order to enter the contest, bakers must present 3 dozen cookies.
The only required ingredient is chocolate chips; let your imagination run wild from there. Cookies will be assigned a number to protect the identity of entrants, and will be available for all to taste and enjoy.
So if you consider yourself a connoisseur of chocolate chip cookies, a baker with a long-hidden desire to prove that you really do make The Best Cookies Ever, or just a friend of The Times who would like to have fun, please come on Saturday, Nov. 17 at 8:00 p.m. to 6161 Kingsbury. Snacks other than cookies and a cash bar will be provided.
A donation of $5.00 per person is requested.
If you are interested in being a judge or would like additional information, please call Katie at 727-6377 or Elizabeth at 361-6517.
