The library will host a Gingerbread Competition for all interested Custer County residents. Entries may be dropped off from December 1st to 10th and will be separated into 3 divisions: Ages 5-8, Ages 9-12, and Ages 13-adult. Each division will have a $50 First Place, $25 Second Place, and $15 Third Place Amazon Gift Card. (The contest will be judged by independent judges, not library staff.)
There will be an additional People’s Choice $50 Amazon gift card. Library visitors can vote for the People’s Choice Award during Library Hours from December 11th to 14th. An Open House will be held on December 15th from 3-6 p.m. for the public to see the contest winners and enjoy some holiday refreshments. To view additional competition details and rules, click HERE.
