🥧 Annual Pie Contest & Auction
Think your homemade apple pie is the best in town? Prove it!
Pie entries: Bring 2 homemade apple pies (one for judging, one for auction).
Drop-off: West entrance of the Courthouse (across from the cinema), between 4–5 PM, Friday, July 4th. A United Way board member will assist you in completing a description form upon drop off.
Judging: On the Courthouse's south lawn.
Auction: Will begin immediately following judging between sets of Summer on the square.
Please use non-returnable containers, and no cream pies (they don’t mix well with the July heat!).
❤️ Not entering the contest but still want to help?
Donate a pie for the auction! Any kind (except cream pies) is welcome, and your contribution will make a big difference. Every dollar raised supports the United Way’s mission to improve education, income stability, and health in our community.
🎆 Let’s make this the biggest, most delicious kickoff Kirksville has ever seen! Whether you’re baking, bidding, or just showing up hungry, this is a can't-miss celebration!
