Calling all you Betty Crockers and pastry-chef wannabees, or just lovers of chocolate and all things dessert. Bring your best sweet creation to the Gold Star Park and enter to win the first ever SPFC Dessert Throw Down - you could go down in history. A prize worthy of dessert awesomeness will be awarded.
The prize is $25 gift certificate to Fante's. Even if you don't win best of show, going home with a belly full of yummy treats is a good consolation prize!
We will also have volunteers available to answer your questions about our progress and accept new member-owners (so bring your checkbook). Five people joined up at least week's event. Let's see if we can get five more!
For your listening enjoyment Gold Star Park welcomes The Knife & Fork Band (according to their website: Too unpredictable for “folk,” too loud for “acoustic,” too unpretentious for “indie,” too complicated for “punk,” too rough for “chamber-pop,” and more band than “singer-songwriter”).
Dessert-judging (and tasting) and the music get started at 7 PM. Remember to stay hydrated!
All are welcome! You don't have to be a member to shop.
Gold Star continues Music (and Food!) in the Park Tomorrow
