CIDERFEST PIE CONTEST

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 19TH 2PM

Got a signature pie or any dessert worth bragging about? Enter our contest and silent dessert auction, and let your baking raise real money for Eatonville. Open to any flavor, any baker.

Tap through the details to see how it works, what you could win, and where every dollar goes. Questions? Email bree@drinkmillhaus.com

Bake two of the same 8–10-inch pies in any flavor, in dishes of your choice. Just let us know if you'd like your dish back. Drop both off anytime from Friday evening through Saturday at noon. One pie is judged and sliced to sell; the other goes to the silent auction.
$150 grand prize! Winners announced at 3:00 PM, with first, second, and third place awarded.
Your first pie is cut and sold at $5 a slice from the fundraising booth.
Every dollar supports the Eatonville Family Agency food bank, Special Olympics Eatonville Cruisers, and EHS Track & Field.
Your second pie enters the silent auction, open for bids from 3:30–5:30 PM. You don't need to be present to win. Winning pies can be picked up the next day at Mill Haus, kept safely refrigerated overnight.
