Donate a Dessert
The in-person Gala dinner will feature a Dessert Dash this year, in which each table combines bids to win the most delicious dessert. Let us know if you are interested in making a dessert or have a contact with someone who could donate one big enough to feed a table of 10 people. Please email us at jjanison@tbcs.org with a brief description of your dessert, and we will send you more details.
Desserts must be dropped off on Friday, March 24, at the Farmhouse or at the Overlake Golf & Country Club by noon on Saturday, March 25.
