I Love My Pie Fancy Pie Contest Cakes are great, however, it s the pie that has woven its way into our American food culture, becoming a symbol of home, tradition, and plenty. Pies are the ultimate home-baked treat; the smell of a freshly baked pie cooling on the windowsill is etched in the memory of many Americans. Over the years, pie has evolved to become what it is today "the most traditional American dessert". Pie has become so much a part of American culture throughout the years, that we now commonly use the term "as American as apple pie." Entries may be made from scratch or a pre-made pie crust. Entries will be judged on taste, appearance, creativity and overall appeal. Open to any Roosevelt County resident. Fancy pies may be picked up on Tuesday August 22 nd from 10-11 am. Only first, second, and third place will be displayed. Please bring pie in metal pie tins. DO NOT bring pies in glass pie pans.
