Juan Carlos and Students |
When Juan Carlos asked our group if we would be willing to assist the students going on the Alternative Spring Break trips with another bake sale, we didn't hesitate to say "yes!" Several of our members contributed their culinary skills once again to fill the tables with both sweet and savory goodies. It was Lent after all and we wanted to be able to offer a variety of baked goods. Others from the greater Newman community contributed lots of baked goodies as well.

Gluten Free Options |
We had quiche, gluten free options, banana breads, spiced pecans, cookies, brownies, pies and cakes, and so much more. We even had a fig tree for sale (which sold quickly). The tables were full. We helped the students with the set up and baking. They baked for two days before the sale and then they did the selling. Working together we were successful, of course, because of the generous people of our Newman community who supported this fundraiser overwhelmingly. Net profit - over $1200! The weekend was fruitful and fun!
