Cookie-palooza – Volunteers

Volunteer Tickets are limited.  Please review the following:

• There is no charge for a ticket, but if you want to participate and take home cookies, you must bring 3 dozen cookies.  Absolutely no exceptions.  
• Dogs on leash are welcome at Nature Lights, but not in the cookie pavilion.

Cookie Rules (again, no exceptions!)
– Please bring 3 dozen cookies to share!
– Cookies can be any flavor, style, shape, or size.
– Dress (your cookies) to impress.  Bake (or buy) us your best. This is your chance to show of your best baking and/or decorating skills.  We love supermarket cookies as much as the next person, but this is not the time for that.  From gingerbread folks and fancy Florentines to twice-baked biscotti and chai-spiced shortbread — we can’t wait to see your holiday best.
–  Bring a card or a sign listing your cookie’s flavors and ingredients.  If your cookies have or don’t have allergens (gluten, nuts, dairy, eggs) – let us know that too.
–  Cookies should be on a board or plate (no pans or trays) – cardboard is fine!

Event Rules:
–  Cookies should be in place by 5:45 pm (even if you have a “later” volunteer shift).
–  There will be 15 minutes for cake viewing and picture taking before cake-cutting chaos ensues.
–  Everyone gets a randomly assigned wristband at check-in (including volunteers).  When cookie-collecting time starts, we’ll pull a color at random, and you can join that group will have 5 minutes to get cake!!! We’ll keep going until all groups have had a turn. Cookie permitting, you will be allowed one re-entry after all groups have had a turn. If there are still cookies remaining — we’ll let people return.
– Cookie collecting will begin at 6:15 pm (ish!).
