Nov 30 – Annual Holiday Cookie Competition. 

Last year a great time was had by all and there were some wonderful, tasty and beautiful cookies that took the prizes in different categories.  And of course the baked goods our ladies made to sell were a big hit as well. 

This year we will be adding a group gingerbread house competition between some community and seniors activity centers in Calgary. 

We are getting all of the rules and forms finalized along with our guest judges.
