Pie Palooza: A Literacy Fundraiser

Pie Palooza is a fundraiser that works like a cake-walk.  Live music will be played by Heart Strings.  When the musicians, Kathie and Denny Brunner, randomly stop playing, they will draw a number.  There will be numbers on the floor.  If you are standing on the number that is drawn when the music stops, you will be able to pick a pie from the pie table as a prize!

 

There will four, fifteen minute sessions of pie palooza.  It will cost $5 for each 15 minutes of play.  A limit of one pie may be won per session of play.

 

The money raised will support literacy programs implemented by Literacy Volunteers of Wayne County.  It will also support the Friends of the Macedon Public Library who provide the funding for our programming for all ages throughout the year.

 

This is a great way to win one, or if you are lucky, more delicious pies for your Thanksgiving feast and to support the library and literacy.

 

Purchase your ticket(s) at the circulation desk today!  Sessions are limited to just 50 people during each quarter hour of play. There will be 10 pie winners each quarter hour!
