Put your pie-baking skills to the test with Saturday morning's Hootin an Hollarin pie contest


Pie contest coordinator Betsy Ritchie poses with the array of pies submitted for the 2017 Hootin an Hollarin pie contest.

The 2018 Hootin an Hollarin pie contest will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 22, in the Shelter Insurance office on Third Street just west of the square. Area bakers are invited to show off their pie-baking skills, but they’re reminded that only pies that don’t require refrigeration may be entered in the competition. A ribbon and a gift will be awarded to the Judge’s Choice winner. Ribbons will also be handed out for first, second and third place winners.

Betsy Ritchie is coordinating this year’s pie-baking contest. She asks pie bakers to bring their entries to the Shelter office between 10 and 11 a.m. Saturday of Hootin an Hollarin.  For more information contact  Betsy at 951-704-6735 or betsy6925.br@gmail.com.
