The Great AGUA Masters Bake Off
As we officially enter the holiday season, please join your teammates in Mazur Hall on Sunday, December 5 at 3pm for an Agua Masters bake off.
Please give a loud and warm Thanksgiving shout out to Fleur Sohtz and Georgie Speight for putting this event together.
The intention is to raise money to benefit AGUA Masters, build community, and celebrate the achievements of our swimmers this year.
This party will be centered around a bake off-themed potluck. You can bring a dessert or main dish, enter the competition, and feed your friends.
If you are interested in entering the contest please email georgina.speight@gmail.com. There will be two judges and winners in each of three categories: cake, cookies, and pastry. |
