The 3rd Annual Pie Baking Contest and Pie Tasting Event will take place on May 29, 2010 at the Dahlonega Hancock Park/Catholic Center (one block behind Brad Walker Pottery) in Dahlonega, GA. Tasting begins at 11AM and will continue until 2PM. Enter your best pie, either a savory or dessert pie (deadline for registration is May 10) or plan to attend the even and sample a wide selection from the best cooks in the area.

A $10 ticket buys five servings of pie of your choice. Cash prizes and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place ribbons will be awarded in both “Savory” and “Sweet” categories. There will also be prizes awarded for “People’s Choice” and “Best of Show”. All proceeds will be donated to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library program in Lumpkin County to assist in the purchase of books and mailing costs. Musical entertainment will be provided by Douglas Brake & the Sizzle-Hiss-Pop Band and the David Brothers Band. There will also be activities and fun for the whole family.
