About this event

Volunteer Tickets are limited. Please review the following:

• There is no charge for a ticket, but if you want to participate and take home cookies, you must bring 3 dozen cookies. Absolutely no exceptions.

Volunteer Activities:

Set up: fold boxes, set up tables

Cookie Monitors: check wristband times, keep cookie collectors moving along

Clean up: pack leftovers, clean up cookie pavilion

Cookie Rules (again, no exceptions!)

– Please bring 3 dozen cookies to share!

– Cookies can be any flavor, style, shape, or size.

– Dress (your cookies) to impress. Bake (or buy) us your best. This is your chance to show of your best baking and/or decorating skills. We love supermarket cookies as much as the next person, but this is not the time for that. From gingerbread folks and fancy Florentines to twice-baked biscotti and chai-spiced shortbread — we can’t wait to see your holiday best.

– Bring a card or a sign listing your cookie’s flavors and ingredients. If your cookies have or don’t have allergens (gluten, nuts, dairy, eggs) – let us know that too.

– Cookies should be on a board or plate (no pans or trays) – cardboard is fine!

Event Rules:

– Cookies should be in place by 5:45 pm.

– There will be 15 minutes for cake viewing and picture taking before cake-cutting chaos ensues.

– Everyone gets a randomly assigned wristband at check-in (including volunteers). When cookie-collecting time starts, we’ll pull a color at random, and you can join that group will have 5 minutes to get cake!!! We’ll keep going until all groups have had a turn. Cookie permitting, you will be allowed one re-entry after all groups have had a turn. If there are still cookies remaining — we’ll let people return.

– Cookie collecting will begin at 6:15 pm (ish!).
