Gingerbread Creations
The results are in and the winners are....

First Prize of $500 sponsored by Gettysburg Hotel Est. 1797 went to Melissa Jacoby Thomas from Dillsburg. Her Red Barn creation included tinted coconut hay bales, snow covered trees, a snowman and even a kitten in the upper window. The fine details were intriguing, right down to the tall spire on the top of the cupola.
Second Prize of $250 sponsored by Barb Zimmerman and Suzanne Christianson - RE/MAX of Gettysburg was presented to Sarah Dutton (shown above with her children and the prize sponsors). Sarah's Lighthouse was covered with silver colored rice krispies. Brown sugar sand and a necco wafer roof added to the charm. A beacon light completed the ambiance.
Third Prize of $100 sponsored by Judie and John Butterfield was awarded to the team from Gettysburg College Servo under the direction of Charles Stockman. The 1:31 scale model of Glatfelter Lodge included cooked colored sugar windows and interior lighting. Lanterns made from spaghetti and tiny marshmallows, and bushes made out of broccoli were features commented upon throughout the day. The winning builders will be donating their prize to Big Brothers/Big Sisters.
Congratulations and THANK YOU to all our builders. We wish we could have provided each of you with a prize.
