Guffey School hosts Third Annual Pie-Palooza February 9th at 5:00PM

If you were one of the over 120 people who attended last years Guffey School Pie-Palooza then you know what a fun-filled, family fun activity it was. And the fun is sure to continue as Guffey community and friends gather to enjoy homemade pies, be entertained by an original western-style melodrama, compete in the pie contest (optional), and bid on some delicious and unique pies. And to top it off, you'll be helping the Guffey Community Charter School raise funds of the student scholarship fund.

For folks who’d like to enter a pie in the contest, you will need to bake and bring two of that pie, one to be judged and one to be auctioned off during the event to raise funds for the school. If you’d rather just attend the event, donate a pie for the auction, or share a pie at the pie buffet, please come too. Multiple pie entries are welcome too! There will be ribbons for first, second, and third place in three different pie categories: Fruit, Cream, and Other (nut, custard, etc.) One talented pie baker will be honored with a Grand Champion medal and an original trophy like last year’s winner Norma Farmer did with her delicious Chicken Pot Pie. Pie entry forms can be found on the school's website, Guffey Library, Rita's Place, or at the school.

Entertainment will be provided by the Guffey School Players, a group of Guffey students, grades 4th-8th, who will be performing an original old western-style melodrama entitled “All's Fair in Love and Pie.” The pie judging and auction will follow the play with local auctioneer Chris Downare conducting the proceedings. Refreshments will follow the awards ceremony.

Everyone is welcome and admission is free. Guffey Community Charter School is located at 1459 Main Street. See the school’s website for directions www.guffeyschool.org or call the school if you have any questions at 719-689-2093. So if you love pie, then come to Guffey School's Second Annual Pie Palooza on Thursday, February 9th starting at 5:00 PM.

You can download an entry form here.
