DESSERT CHALLENGE AT CAMP KIWANIS Do you enjoy baking? Do you love Key Club and Kiwanis??? Good news! There will be a dessert challenge event to raise money to keep Camp Kiwanis up and running! The event will be on April 2nd around 2pm. If you make a desert, you need to there by 1:15 to set it up. Here’s how it works: 1. Bake 2 desserts of your choice (BOTH MUST BE THE SAME DESSERT). One will be divided into about 120 tasting cups for people to sample. These should be kept full the entire tasting time. 2. If you can’t cut it before bringing it to Camp Kiwanis, you can do it there but there will be limited counter space. Be sure to arrive at 1:15. 3. Your other dessert (same as the first, but uncut) will be voted on and auctioned off after the tasting period. 4. Please provide a list of ingredients to be displayed with your desserts on a table tent that will be provided so people can check for allergies. 5. The dessert to be auctioned off should be on a plate or in some container that will go to the winning bidder. 6. If you have any questions, email Dan Dotta at dottadan@gmail.com.
Pasco Kiwanis would love it if at least 1 Key Clubber from every club to participate! If you want to go but don’t want to make a dessert, the entry fee is $10. Anyone can bid on desserts and bringing your families is encouraged!
