There's a lot of bickering and disagreement in this world, but a couple things anyone with a soul can agree on are the value of helping the less fortunate put food on the table and the value of pie. Amazingly, an event that incorporates both is planned for Saturday at The Olympia Center.
Simply known as Olympia Pie Fest 2012, this is an amateur pie-making competition of epic proportion, mixing, well, pie with live music, raffle prizes and "cheerful chitchat," according to the Olympia Bakers Guild website.
The best part is all money raised goes to the Thurston County Food Bank and the Senior Nutrition Program.
Those interested in entering the Pie Fest 2012 contest can find guidelines (no dairy in the pie fillings!) online at olybakers.com, with pie drop off between 10-11:30 a.m.
Organizers say each donated pie brings in $50 by the time it's said and done. The pie eating, award bestowing, and general merriment is scheduled from 1-3:30 p.m.
[The Olympia Center, pie drop off 10-11:30 a.m., Pie Fest 2012 1-3:30 p.m., $5 per entry of five quality cans of food, 222 Columbia St. NW, Olympia, olybakers@gmail.com, 360.628.4480, olybakers.com]
