First, thanks to all cookie bakers who provided cookies for the Cookie Race. At the beginning of the week it looked as though we wouldn’t have many cookies at all, but then they started to pile up at Tim and Tina’s house. Tim thought it was pure magic the way he’d go to bed at night and in morning find bags and bags of cookies at his front door!

The race was a great success, in no small part because of all the fabulous home baking. I talked to one 24 k racer who told me “undoubtedly” gained weight during the race. He was very happy!

Just one small glitch to mention: There wasn’t time to complete the prize draw so we are reassembling the list of bakers. We have everyone’s name who dropped their cookies off in Calgary, either at COP or Tina and Tim’s house, but if you dropped cookies off either on Friday or Saturday, then your name has been misplaced, so please email you name, email address and phone number to Karen (karenj.anderson@shaw.ca) and she’ll make sure your name is entered when we complete the draw.

Thanks!
